Due to renovation work, Stadtwerke Gießen AG (SWG) has taken the giant water slide in the Ringallee bathing centre out of service ahead of schedule. SWG normally uses the time when the indoor pool is closed during the summer holidays to carry out all maintenance and repair work. The planned renovation work on the slide is more extensive and will therefore take longer than the usual summer break. For this reason, SWG has already started work on the 62 metre long "good mood" guarantor for young and old.
Swimming pool still open
The indoor pool at the Ringallee bathing centre is still open to bathers with its wide range of facilities. Only slide enthusiasts will have to wait until the end of August.
New slide in progress
After the summer holidays, SWG will present the slide facility with a landing pool. To ensure that the "good mood" guarantor also fulfils the new requirements and regulations for swimming pool operators, SWG is equipping the water slide with a run-out or landing pool. A landing pool not only ensures the safety of the bathers, but also guarantees the slide passengers a soft landing after a full ride.
