Richmond Swimming Centre

Total value: $30.139 million

Western Sydney Infrastructure Grants Program funding: $30.139 million

The redevelopment of the current 1960s facility will greatly improve the accessibility and services on offer at the swimming centre and enable it to operate all year round. The improvements include:

• All-season usage through an indoor and outdoor aquatic space allowing a new 8 lane 50m pool with separable boom that separates into two 25m pools (one with the ability to enclose during winter).
• Accessibility upgrades to make the pools accessible to less mobile children and adults
• Interactive, zero-depth splash feature park for young children
• Increased shade throughout the site
• Additional community infrastructure including picnic facilities
• Improved water efficiency upgrades to aging plant and equipment
