Black Head ocean pool will be closed next week for upgrades to the pool surrounds.
Work will take place from Monday 19 June to Friday 23 June, weather permitting.
The pool will be fenced off for concreting and painting work. This will prevent further deterioration of the pool surface and improve the look of the pool.
Black Head ocean pool is one of two popular ocean baths on the MidCoast, popular with local families and visitors.
“Maintaining iconic assets such as our ocean baths is important to our community, we want them to be around for many years to come,” said Rhett Pattison, MidCoast Council’s Manager Community Assets.
“We’re doing the necessary maintenance in the quiet winter period, so as to reduce the impact on pool users as much as possible.”
The Black Head Ocean Baths comprises of the 30m training pool and children’s swimming area. Entry is free, with the Black Head Pool Maintenance Committee accepting voluntary contributions via a donation box.
During the temporary closure, the surrounding amenities will still be available for use, including the picnic tables, amenities block and playground.
