NEWPORT'S new £5.2 million swimming-pool is set to open this week.
The South East Wales Regional Swimming Pool is the newest addition to Newport's growing International Sports Village, in Spytty.
It will be officially opened on Friday, followed by an open weekend on Saturday and Sunday.
This new facility will include a 25-metre, eight-lane competition pool with movable floor, fitness suite, teaching pool and more than 500 seats for spectators.
A children's play area and multi-use games area will be built next to the pool, which adjoins the current tennis centre. Outdoor tennis courts are also included in the development.
