The Bluewater Lagoon will close next Monday (June 30) for its winter maintenance period.
The facility will undergo important upgrades to the plant room, including pump and instrument upgrades, during that time.
Contractor Dowdens Pumping and Water Treatment will be carrying out the upgrades and are expecting works to be completed, and the pool to be reopened, by mid-September 2025.
Works will be carried out Monday to Friday from 6.30am to 6pm and Saturday from 7am to 5pm, as required.
There may be some noise associated with these works. However, appropriate controls will be implemented to minimise any impact to residents.
The works within this project will ensure this facility continues to serve the needs of the community well into the future and it is expected to increase the longevity of the lagoon.
Other council pools, including the Mackay ARC, will remain open during this period. For opening hours, head to council's website
