Project update: Port Huon pool refurbishment
Explore Councils by state
Council wishes to advise the community that the re-opening date of the Port Huon pool has been revised from August 2024 to the first quarter of 2025 to accommodate electrical supply upgrades.
While all other works essential to re-opening will be complete in 2024, electrical supply upgrades were not anticipated in the initial project plan and were realised as part of the detailed engineering design for the new heating and ventilation system.
Council expects to provide a more accurate opening date in October once a delivery schedule is confirmed to upgrade the power supply.
“We understand the delay in re-opening will disappoint many, and we do apologise for this,” said Huon Valley Mayor Sally Doyle.
“We are confident that it will be worth the wait. The refurbished pool, pool hall and ventilation system will enhance our patrons’ year-round swimming experience.”
While the pool remains closed, other facilities at the Port Huon Sports Centre such as the gym and playing courts are still open to the public.
“We look forward to opening the Huonville pool for the summer season on 2 November 2024 and welcoming our swimmers back.
