We are trying to create something new and iconic, something that stands out."Further financial savings and a reprieve for the existing venue are unlikely with the cost of operating the site already brought down from almost in 2010.Large parts of the centre are already unusable with squash courts flooded, diving boards closed due to safety concerns and redundant facilities like public baths closed off.Paul Breed, chief executive of Coventry Sports Foundation which assists with the operation of the site, said: "At the current site we are spending large amounts of money just making things safe, not usable again."We have got to a stage where we simply keep going as long as we can and then inevitably close this site, or we divert the funds used for that to make sure we have a better and more accessible facility. We should not be propping up facilities which are unfit for purpose."Council officials predict the number of annual visits to a new leisure centre to rise to around 1.3million a year from around 800,000 at the current site.The council is expected to seek financial support for the project from the likes of national governing bodies of sport and European funding.Timeline of Coventry Sports Centre:1956 Against the backdrop of the radical rebuilding of Coventry, the plan for the Central Baths was first conceived and unveiled.. receiver satellite If you are on international flight transit or a brief stopover and like to unwind, freshen up or take a nice shower, the Airside Transit Hotel which is own and managed by Malaysia Airports Holdings, the owner of the KLIA can offer you that nicely. free to air satellite The Airside Hotel is perfect for the in between flight traveller who do not want to check through the Malaysian Immigration the hotel is at the Satellite A Building which is inside the airport and before the Immigration checkpoint.
