Commonwealth Pool to hold 2014 Games preview

The pool will host the diving events for the 2014 Glasgow Games, where Olympic star Tom Daley is expected to be a major draw.

Temporary structures are needed to provide facilities for spectators, athletes, media and officials. Games organisers are staging a drop-in session at the pool on Tuesday, March 5, from 3-7pm, to brief residents on the implications, including security, access and traffic measures.

Games boss Ralph Ord said: “Temporary changes in and around the Royal Commonwealth Pool are needed to deliver an outstanding diving event and have been designed to minimise inconvenience to the local community.”
