Consultation has concluded
We are planning for a major upgrade of Helensburgh Pool that will extend its life by 40 years. The existing pool shell is in poor condition with concrete cancer developing and there is limited remaining useful life in the shell. The upgrade will also provide better access to the pool for users and offer modern water play features for everyone to enjoy.
The upgrade is scheduled for 2024/25.
We invite your input to help inform our brief to a specialist aquatic designer that we will contract to develop the detailed upgrade plan.
The upgrade works will include:
a new 25 metre pool with 6 lanes and an accessible ramp style entry
a water splash pad
new LED lighting
a solar shade structure
new filtration system and tanks.
View the concept plan to see what is proposed across the pool site.
The upgrade is in line with the Future of our Pools Strategy that identifies the need to modernise our pools, make them accessible and inclusive to a range of users, increase their environmental sustainability and offer more recreational opportunities. Council received a NSW Government Multi Sport Community Facility Fund grant to help with the upgrade. This also includes funding for new sports field lighting at Rex Jackson Oval.
A combined community centre, library and sporting precinct is identified in the Helensburgh Park Plan of Management. The pool upgrade project is part of our work towards delivering new or upgraded facilities in the precinct.
