Background
There are plans to redevelop the old swimming pool and existing Multi Use Games Area site at Filwood Broadway with a housing-led development. To replace the existing Multi Use Games Area (MUGA), a new high quality MUGA is planned for Filwood Playing Fields.
Construction of the new MUGA is currently on hold whilst the council works collaboratively with the landowner Fields in Trust to incorporate the MUGA into future masterplans for the wider playing fields.
In the meantime, maintenance works have been carried out at the existing MUGA on Filwood Broadway to improve the condition of the facility.

Next Steps
Once proposals for the wider masterplan at Filwood Playing Fields come forward, the MUGA designs will be finalised with input from local youth groups. A construction contractor will be appointed to build the facility in 2025.
Project Timeline
The project is expected to be constructed in late 2025.
Funding
LUF: £350,000. Council Funding: £300,000
