Work will start this week to improve a gym.
Telford & Wrekin Council is starting work at Wellington Civic and Leisure Centre to enhance the gym.
The renovations, which start on Tuesday, will see a new fitness studio, cycling studio and bigger fitness suite at the centre on Tan Bank.
Users can expect a new and improved fitness suite as well as a purpose-built fitness studio.
The development will also see the opening of a brand new cycling studio which will have state of the art equipment, with a new virtual screen.
Following the works on the fitness suite, there will also be the refurbishment of the health suite's sauna, steam room and spa area.
The aspirations fitness suite and swimming pool will remain staffed and open throughout the works.
But the fitness studio will be closed and a satellite class programme will be brought in
All fitness classes have been accommodated nearby to reduce disruption.
The gym will re-open fully in August 2017
Fliss Mercer, Telford & Wrekin Council’s assistant director for commercial services, said: “I am very excited about the refurbishment and further development of Wellington Civic and Leisure Centre and am very much looking forward to seeing our members making use of the new and improved facilities.
“The already brilliant aspirations health and fitness offer continues to improve and it is anticipated that work will be completed this summer.
“Disruption will be kept to a minimum wherever possible. I am really looking forward to the refurbished facilities opening and I am sure that all users will appreciate the investment.”
