The final stage of the Port Huon pool upgrade is occurring, with the new heating and ventilation system due to arrive by the end of the year. Significant improvements have been made, and these include enhanced energy efficiency through double glazed windows and doors and the recently installed all-ability hoist.
Mayor Doyle explained, “This particular hoist allows three different methods for people of all abilities to enter the pool, including a sling style seat, aquatic wheelchair and supported standing. The stairs in the shallow end are still available to those who do not require mobility assistance.”
“We are looking forward to reopening the Port Huon pool to our community in early 2025,” says Mayor Doyle. “We understand how valued this facility is, and expect to welcome everyone back to enjoy the extensively refurbished pool soon.”
The exact date of the reopening will be revealed early next year.
