A $70 million contract has been awarded to build the Pimpama Sports Hub on the Gold Coast, which aims to address the local community’s needs.
ADCO will begin construction on the facility in October, which will be built in two separate portions, divided by a natural watercourse.
It will include an aquatic centre with five pools, café, a health and fitness centre, community centres, meeting and function rooms, multipurpose hall, eight tennis courts, a 12-court netball facility, community parks, carparking and a new intersection on Rifle Range Road.
