Consultation starts on Stromlo Pool


Released 25/07/2017

The ACT Government will soon invite tenders for the design and construction of the $33 million Stromlo Pool.

The design will allow for future expansion of the facility so it has the capacity to grow over time as part of a unique sporting destination, Stromlo Forest Park.

We want to know what the community priorities for additional facilities are so this can be considered during the design process.

We are committed to ongoing investment in sport and recreation in the Territory, which includes making sure we have a range of quality sporting facilities around Canberra to encourage a healthy and active community.

The new facility will meet the needs of newer residents in the area, such as those living in the Molonglo Valley, as well as the Weston Creek community.

The Government will also seek the views of the sporting organizations and other stakeholders in the consultation which will remain open until the end of January 2017.

Construction on the Stromlo Pool is currently expected to start in late 2017 with completion in 2019.
