Security Gate Damaged at Glasgow Pool Amid Building Safety Concerns

Hey, listen to this. Someone tore a gate off at that Whitehill Pool. It’s been closed for a while now. The gate was part of the pool’s fence. People use it for a right of way. Vandalism happened this week, apparently.

Elaine McDougall is a local councillor. She worries the building is falling apart. They closed it because of bad concrete last year. McDougall was worried about the gate falling on someone. She thinks Glasgow Life isn’t doing enough to fix the problems.

She said Glasgow Life let the building get wrecked. Kids can’t even use the games hall right now. The pool heats that space. The kids now go to a different arena. Adults also miss the pool a lot too. Glasgow Life closed it due to the dodgy concrete.

Glasgow Life says funding affects their plans. They said someone vandalized the fence gate. They fixed it quickly, which is good. City Building repaired the gate. Glasgow Council has money for projects.

Officials will figure out what they can do at the pool. They will use the available funds. Glasgow Life will talk to people about the plan, real soon. People are talking about it online, too.
