Media response - Noarlunga Aquatic Centre accessibility

Published on 04 June 2025

Response to The Advertiser.

• Just wondering whether the council has considered installing a pool lift [as part of an upcoming refurbishment] to improve accessibility? I understand that there will be a new accessibility ramp but it would be great to know whether there will be any other upgrades to improve access to the pool for community members with mobility issues and/or disabilities.

Accessibility at the Noarlunga Aquatic Centre will be improved as part of the upcoming refurbishment with the installation of a new accessible ramp into the main pool.

This new ramp will add to the existing accessibility ramp into the lagoon pool (which will be retained) and our existing free-standing/portable pool lift, which is well utilised by the community.
