Perth Leisure Pool will reopen on Friday after being shut for several days.

The pool closed on Monday night due to “ongoing plant issues”.

The training pool and health suite remained open as normal.

Bosses had originally hoped the leisure pool would reopen on Thursday.

Perth Leisure Pool to reopen on Friday

An update on social media said: “The issue causing the closure of the leisure pool has been repaired, however, the pool water temperature and chemical levels need to be brought back up gradually throughout today.

“We’re pleased to say that the leisure pool, flumes and features will reopen to the public on Friday April 12 at 10am.

“Thanks to all of our customers for your patience and understanding.”

It comes after the training pool was closed following a “maintenance fault” in February.

Courier campaign to save Perth’s leisure facilities

At the beginning of this year, Perth and Kinross Council proposed closing Perth Leisure Pool, Dewars Centre and Bell’s Sports Centre and merging them into one facility.

Councillors voted to reject a proposal which would not have included a leisure pool in Perth.

A Courier campaign has been set up to amplify local voices to protect Perth’s leisure facilities.
