Welcome to the project page for the Great Yarmouth Marina Centre project, which is being built by Morgan Sindall Construction.
Here you can read about the project and its positive effect on the community, and track progress as it happens.
We're building an exciting addition to the Great Yarmouth community! The new Marina Centre will include three swimming pools (25 metre, learner and leisure pools), a gym, sports hall, associated changing rooms and seaside Café, just to name a few items! Take a look at this page to find out more and make sure you check back for regular information as we keep you up to date with the progress of the project.
The new development is being built on the existing grounds of the previous centre along the Great Yarmouth Golden Mile. The project is being delivered for Great Yarmouth Borough Council, the £26 million investment will be a major boost to the economy and community for decades to come, acting as a catalyst for potential further investment and seafront regeneration, whilst supporting health and well-being for the whole borough.
Making a positive difference in the communities we work is a vital part of our responsible business plan. Our Community Investment Group supports our project teams in the delivery of local community engagement projects, and are part of the wider Morgan Sindall Construction team in the East, which operates out of four regional offices, with the Norwich Office being associated to this project.
