An Olympic-sized swimming pool is 50m in length. According to the International Swimming Federation (FINA), the specifications for an Olympic-size pool are as follows: Length â¦50m (164ft) width 25m (82ft) lane width 2.5m (8'2) water temp 25 - 28oC (77 - 82oF) min depth 2m (6'7) Volume min. 2,500m3 (88,000ft3)
Wider lanes (over 3.3~3.4m) are associated with 33% higher impact speeds, as well as higher crash rates. Carrying capacity is also maximal at a width of 3 to 3.1 metres (9.8 to 10.2 ft), both for motor traffic and for bicycles. Pedestrian volume declines as lanes widen, and intersections with narrower lanes provide the highest capacity for bicycles. As lane width decreases, traffic speed diminishes.
