Investigations are continuing to assess the impacts and cause of the damaged roof in the aquatic space at the Mandurah Aquatic and Recreation Centre.
The roof damage, which was identified in late May, has been isolated to the indoor 25 metre program pool area.
With the safety of customers and staff remaining the priority as the City progresses investigations, the impacted area was closed off immediately, and an alternative entry to the leisure and 50-metre outdoor pool was created.
Chief Executive Officer Mark Newman thanked the community and Mandurah Aquatic and Recreation Centre (MARC) staff for their patience and understanding during the process.
“We understand that this is disappointing for our community and we are working to minimise any further disruption to our programs and services at the MARC,” Mr Newman said.
“Right now, we’re working closely with specialists and structural engineers to determine the cause and extent of the damage, however the road to repairs may be a lengthy process.
“We need to find out the reasons why the roof was damaged before we create a plan to safely carry out the repairs. Thanks to our community for understanding while we wait on some important test results to come through.”
Mandurah Aquatic and Recreation Centre will keep members updated via the Facebook page, and information is also available on the City’s website www.mandurah.wa.gov.au.
