Construction work has begun at Pentre Awel, a multi-million-pound project that will bring together business, research, education, community healthcare and modern leisure facilities all at one prime location along the Llanelli coastline. Bouygues UK will design and build Zone One of the development due to be completed in autumn 2024.
Pentre Awel is the first development of its scope and size in Wales (United Kingdom). On completion, it will provide world-class medical research and healthcare delivery and will support and encourage people to lead active and healthy lives.
It will create five distinct buildings linked with a “street” space, comprising an aquatics center, sports hall, multipurpose sports and fitness rooms and gym, education and training facilities, clinical delivery and research and innovation and business space.
As well as improving health and well-being, the project will create over 1,800 jobs and training and apprenticeship opportunities, and is expected to boost the local economy by a £467 million over the next 15 years.
The multi-phase project is part-funded by the Swansea Bay City Deal (£40million).
