We're moving forward on plans to improve and refurbish Helensburgh Pool over the coming months.
Right now, the procurement process is underway, with the works scheduled to start during winter for completion before the end of the year. The works scheduled as part of this project will extend the life of the existing pool by another 30 years and more, as well as improve its accessibility for all members of the community.
The planned works are informed by community consultation. The project includes:
- refurbishment of the 25m and toddlers’ pools including structural remediation, resealing the construction joints, a full repaint and retiling,
- complete refurbishment of the male and female amenities including new partitions and fixtures,
- construction of a new changing places toilet with 24/7 access and other accessibility upgrades,
- construction of a new accessible toilet and parking spaces,
- resurfacing the pool concourse,
- installation of new handrails, seating, shade and bike racks,
- improvements to pool concourse lighting,
- the existing shade structure will be painted, and new shade cloth will be installed,
- refurbishing the existing pool plant room. and
- replacing the ageing pool plant and equipment.
The works on the pool are supported by grant funding from the NSW Government’s Multi Sport Community Facility Fund.
