Peterborough’s Regional Pool is closed for a fifth day.

There is still no indication as to when the city centre swimming pool will reopen but a spokesperson for Peterborough Ltd, the council-owned company that manages the pool, said that an update on this is expected tomorrow.

Meanwhile, a note on the pool’s website says it will “provide a further update as soon as we can”.

Members of the facility’s gym are also affected, with this being closed and classes cancelled.

Peterborough City Council and its Peterborough Ltd have been contacted for more information.
