Season Kicks Off for Wartberg-Free-Bad Without a Steep Decline

The much-loved slide at Pforzheimer's swimming pool is currently under repair, causing a slight delay in the start of the outdoor swimming season. The TÜV inspection process is ongoing for the 83-meter long slide, following a discovery of a potential crack suspicion at a weld seam during the annual TÜV inspection.

The municipal company, Pforzheimer Verkehrs- und Bäderbetriebe, is conducting the necessary inspections and repairs. An exchange with a structural engineer and a specialized company has taken place to assess the slide's condition and determine the best course of action for repair.

The city's goal is to put the slide back into operation as soon as possible. Repairs to the damaged area are expected to be completed in the coming week, according to the latest updates. However, the exact nature or cause of the crack in the weld seam is not specified in the reports.

The slide, inaugurated in 1984, is one of the main attractions of the pool and is a favourite among swimming pool enthusiasts. The large slide was initially not available for the start of the outdoor swimming season, but the city remains hopeful that it will be ready in time for the weekend.
