Bluewater Lagoon to close in late-April for relining works

Contractors will be completing work to replace the existing surface of the main and top lagoons with a new lining and tiles.

The existing Quartzon lining of the lagoon’s floor is being replaced with a Polyvinyl Chloride membrane system that will reduce maintenance requirements at the facility.

This follows on from the work completed last year, which involved relining the children’s pool with the new finish.

This work has been scheduled to be completed during the winter maintenance period to avoid unnecessary inconvenience to the public.

Residents are also advised that the Bluewater Lagoon’s kids’ pool and splash pad is currently out of action.

The pool pump is in need of repairs that may take several weeks to complete as there are parts that need to be ordered from an overseas supplier.

As a result, the kids’ pool and splash pad will remain closed for the rest of the season.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding and patience.

The Memorial Swim Centre and Mackay Aquatic and Recreation Complex will remain open as usual over the winter period.
