Paddling pool will return to Victoria Embankment

paddling pool

I am really pleased that we have been able to secure external funding to bring back paddling at Victoria Embankment, with help from The National Lottery Heritage Fund. The council recognises that the pool is an important part of Nottingham?s cultural heritage, with nearly 100 years of cherished memories of happy days spent playing in the water overlooking the River Trent.

Sadly, it has been difficult and expensive to maintain such an old facility and it has not been in use since before the pandemic. Knowing its importance to local people, we undertook extensive community engagement last year and are working hard to come up with a sustainable, creative and affordable design that will be enjoyed by many for years to come.

Although the council is facing difficult financial decisions, we remain committed to creating a greener, healthier, happier Nottingham and wherever possible we will secure external funding to achieve that. We will use a combination of so-called ?Section 106? contributions to the council from property developers and Government Levelling Up grant, along with a National Lottery Heritage Fund grant, to make up the ?544,000 needed to reinstate the much-loved facility.

This is great news for future generations of Nottingham children who will begin to benefit from a newly designed facility from as early as next Easter.

Works begin on new cycling route and walking improvements on St Ann?s Well Road

Cycling Route

Work has begun on the latest addition to our extensive cycling network across the city. We are creating cycle lanes safely segregated from the rest of the traffic which we know helps to encourage more people to cycle.

We have an east-west cycle route [ [link removed] ] where most recently a cycle path is being built on London Road roundabout before works move onto Bellar Gate. The latest works help to develop north-south routes with improvements along St Ann?s Well Road. This will be complemented by a scheme on Porchester Road which is also in progress.?

The St Ann?s Well Road works start at the junction with St Ann?s Valley (Heron Foods) and will progress towards the city centre.?This scheme is being delivered using funding from the Government?s ?Active Travel Fund? (ATF) and is expected to be completed by Spring 2024.

All the latest information on the scheme and any traffic restrictions will be available via the Transport Nottingham website. [ [link removed] ] ?

Cool Jazz

Bands in the Park returns this summer with free concerts at the Arboretum and Victoria Embankment. Each performance begins at 2pm at the parks' magnificent bandstands.

Cool Jazz is a tenor sax led quintet playing Swing and Latin from the 30s to the 70s. Their instrumental and vocal numbers range from relaxing to toe-tapping. Cool Jazz will play at the Arboretum on Sunday 30 July.

Now in its 33rd year, Nottingham Concert Band draws from a wide repertoire, so there is always something for everyone at their concerts. Led by Conductor and Music Director Robert Parker, they perform at Victoria Embankment on Sunday 3 September.
