LA Fitness - Bridgeville

There are only two other pools in the South Hills area for lap swimming. Unlike one of the other pools, the LA Fitness pool gets a lot of traffic from swimmers, walkers and others of that type. It also doesn't require reservations, so it gets more drop-in traffic. The advantage of this pool over the others is that there are no kids' programs, so you don't lose lanes to lessons or lifeguard classes.

Be sure to call ahead. This pool seems to be closed for "maintenance and repair" frequently (more frequently than other LA Fitness pools in the area).

The facility is fairly new and in good condition. It is surrounded on three sides by windows and the sun comes up at one end. The lanes are nice and wide. When I was there (6 AM on Memorial Day), there was no one to share a lane with, with so I can't speak to whether swimmers are willing to share. In my experience, LA Fitness is strict about swimming only at the official times, even if the door to the pool area is open, and this pool has more restrictive hours than the club itself. The locker rooms are clean. Bring your own lock and towel.
