Building work at the site in Bloors Lane, Rainham, will begin in the new year with the expectation of completion by summer 2024.
“We can’t wait to get started,” said Willmott Dixon director Adam Worrall.
Called Splashes, Rainham’s £23.7m leisure centre will have two swimming pools (and for swimming and one fun stuff), as well as a gym, a fitness studio and a cafe.
It replaces the old Splashes leisure, built in 1990 and demolished in February 2022 after surveys indicate it was cheaper to rebuild than keep repairing.
