Coatbridge Time Capsule slide closed after children report 'sickness'

A water park in North Lanarkshire has closed one of its slides after parents reported their children falling ill after visiting.

North Lanarkshire Council said it was carrying out checks at the Time Capsule following the complaints.

It said chlorine and water tests had come back satisfactory but the Tantrum slide would be closed as a precaution while more tests were under way.

The rest of the leisure centre will remain open.

A spokesperson said: “While all our chlorine and water tests have been satisfactory, we have closed the Tantrum slide as a precaution to carry out further checks.

“The health and wellbeing of all our customers is our highest priority.

“The Time Capsule Waterpark remains open.”
