Construction is well underway on Westport's new Solid Energy Centre. The centre, once complete, will contain an aquatic centre, dry court facility, fitness centre, hockey turf and two squash courts. 
The project has a budget of $15.5 million. 50% of this will be rate payer funded and 50% has come from external sources.
The contract for the Solid Energy Centre has been undertaken by Kidson Construction. At this early stage it is anticipated that at least $2.65 million will be spent locally on the construction project, with local subcontractors and suppliers. An additional $1 million is expected to be spent on West Coast subcontractors.
The construction project is well underway. Check out our Solid Energy Centre website for more information on the centre and the construction progress.
