According to the construction project of the new sports complex, it will house two swimming pools (one of them will be for beginners, mainly for children), a gymnasium of 500 square metres, and three activity rooms of 144, 183 and 127 metres for different sports disciplines . The project will be installed on a surface area of 22,698 square metres, where the building will occupy almost 5,000 metres, surrounded by a green area.

In terms of construction, the building will have fair-faced concrete and cork enclosures, a typology that the drafting team – Nimo and Mezquita Arquitectura – has already used in facilities in Lisbon, Setúbal and Braga, where it has achieved an energy class A rating. It will also have a solar energy field that will supply a large part of the municipality’s electricity needs. Waste heat from the Council’s installations will be used to heat the building. Grey water from the swimming pool filters will also be reused for the toilets in the sports complex.
