Pool replacement at Alder Recreation Centre delayed to early 2023

September 1, 2022   ·   2 Comments

Due to ongoing global supply chain issues, the Town of Orangeville is extending the completion date of the Alder Recreation Centre pool renovation to early 2023.

“While we had hoped our contractors would get the materials needed to complete the project this year, we are not immune to the supply chain challenges and are experiencing delays with the materials required for the renovation,” says a recent press release from the town.

“We know the ongoing pool closure impacts the services available to the community. We want to reassure Orangeville residents and other pool users that we remain committed to keeping this project moving forward and will keep residents informed on the progress.”

When the project is finished, the newly renovated stainless-steel pool will provide more space for recreation swims, swim meets, leisure events and offer access to expanded swimming lessons.

The pool will be more energy-efficient and have enhanced air and water quality systems.

In the meantime, while residents wait for the project to be completed, the town is encouraging them to continue using the pool at Tony Rose Memorial Sports Centre.
