The City of Bayswater is undertaking important improvement works at Bayswater Waves from 7 April 2025, including the replacement of a large section of the facility’s roof and gutters. These upgrades will address infrastructure not included in the recent refurbishment and will significantly improve the overall functionality, safety and experience for patrons.
To make the most of this opportunity, additional maintenance works will also be completed, such as:
- Improving spa jet functionality
- Repairing and replacing tiles in the hydrotherapy and steam room areas
- Undertaking sauna maintenance
- Repainting and cosmetic touch-ups
These works are essential to maintaining Bayswater Waves as a premier aquatic and fitness destination for our community.
Crane Lift & Car Park Access – Monday 7 April
To safely begin the Bayswater Waves Roof Replacement Works, a large crane lift is scheduled for Monday 7 April 2025 between 6:30am and 2:00pm. This is a necessary step to lift equipment onto the roof for the project.
What to Expect:
-
Partial car park closure will be in place during this time.
-
Entry to Bayswater Waves will be via Broun Avenue only.
-
No access from Broadway will be available during the crane lift.
-
Temporary changes to bus and vehicle movements will be managed on site.
We recommend allowing extra time for arrival and following any signage or directions from staff during this period. Thank you for your understanding as we work to improve your facility.
Managing Disruptions
While the works are confirmed, some temporary closures and program adjustments will be required throughout April and early May to ensure safety while contractors are onsite. These closures are planned to take place in stages, and we will do everything possible to minimise disruption and keep patrons informed.
Where possible, alternate options will be provided, including:
- Access to Morley Sport & Recreation Centre and The RISE gyms at no additional cost for health club members
- Relocated group fitness classes
- Adjusted swim lesson locations
- Continued use of the 25m and 50m pools
