No impact on opening hours or access to H₂O Xtream

The aquatic centre will continue to be open for its normal opening hours while the building works are in progress on the outside of the facility.

Customers visiting H₂O Xtream will be able to enjoy swimming, aqua aerobics and swim classes, and wellness spots as usual.

 

H₂O Xtream is a new facility. Why is this additional work taking place now?

We understand that it is disconcerting and frustrating to see extra building works taking place after H₂O Xtream’s recent refurbishment.

As with any re-opening, we get the best picture of the day-to-day operations of new equipment once a facility has been up and running for a while. In this case, we have identified that the extractor fans on H₂O Xtream’s roof require additional screenings for a sustainable seven-day operation of the facility.

We know that H₂O Xtream is a significant drawcard for local swimmers as well as visitors from the wider region. Our priority has been to schedule and plan this work to keep the impact on customers and community minimal.
