We are pleased to advise that Stage 2 of the Beenleigh Aquatic Centre upgrade will commence in March 2024. This project will replace the 60 year old outdoor pool and buildings to support an active and healthy community.
The Project is identified in our Community Infrastructure Strategy and will complete the upgrades identified in the Dauth Park Masterplan endorsed by Council in 2018.
In July and August of 2022, we asked the community to tell us their needs and vision for a new outdoor pool in Beenleigh. Feedback from close to 400 community members has been incorporated into the design which will include the following:
- 50 metre heated pool
- expanded children’s water play area
- shaded seating areas
- multipurpose rooms
- modern changeroom facilities
- kiosk
- accessible and family friendly amenities
- new carpark
The new outdoor pool is expected to be opened late 2025.
Why is council upgrading the Beenleigh Aquatic Centre?
The existing pool is over 60 years old and nearing the end of its useful life. The upgrade will complete Stage 2 of the Dauth Park Masterplan which was endorsed by Council in 2018.
What upgrades are happening?
Based on community feedback from close to 400 respondents, the upgrades will include:
- construction of a new outdoor 50 metre heated pool
- expanded children’s play area
- shaded seating areas
- multipurpose rooms
- modern changeroom facilities
- kiosk
- accessible features including ramps and hoists
- a new carpark.
The upgrade also includes a community stage facing Centenary Park for community concerts and events.
What will happen to the indoor pool during construction?
The indoor pool will remain open for all existing programs including aqua aerobics and swimming lessons. We will do our best to manage any impacts on users. Please be aware access to the grassed areas of Centenary Park will be limited during construction and there will be additional noise and minor disruptions which will be managed during construction.
What's the proposed timeline for construction?
- March 2024: Construction on the new carpark scheduled to start.
- April 2024: Outdoor pool will be closed from the 15 April and demolition of the existing outdoor pool and buildings is scheduled to start.
- May 2024: Construction of the new outdoor pool is scheduled to start.
Where can I park during construction?
There will be no changes to parking at the Beenleigh Aquatic Centre during the first stage of the upgrade. The existing carpark will close once the new carpark is completed with the new entry and exit from Alamein Street only.
What other community pools can I use?
We have pools across the city that residents can access. To find information about community pools and their operating hours visit Logan Leisure Centres.
What will happen to my Logan Leisure Centres membership?
Members can use the Logan North Aquatic Centre during redevelopment. Access is included in Platinum and Blue memberships. Aqua aerobics will continue to run in the Beenleigh Aquatic Centre indoor pool during construction.
Will all existing programs and lessons operate as usual during construction?
Yes, there will be no changes to any programs or lessons.
What will happen to the Beenleigh Brass Band located near Beenleigh Aquatic Centre?
The Beenleigh Brass Band will be using the Crete Street Theatre during construction and will have access to a storeroom, multipurpose room and stage as part of the new aquatic centre development.
