New tiling blunder hits Bebington Oval pool work

Wirral News - by Carrie Catterall

WIRRAL Council has admitted to another blunder over the new swimming pool at Bebington Oval.

Only weeks after it was discovered the pool would only be built with five lanes instead of six, due to a bungled refurbishment plan, the council has admitted to another error - this time with the tiling of the pool.

In June the News reported that the lane foul-up would mean The Oval could not host competitive swimming again or be used as planned by Olympic athletes ahead of the 2012 London Olympics.

The council has refused to elaborate on the tiling mistake or the cost of rectifying it.

A council spokesperson said: “Retiling work on the pool at the Oval is underway. At a very early stage, an error was identified which is now being rectified.”
