Community Development MMC Margaret Arnolds was pleased to welcome Joburgers back to the City’s municipal swimming pools.
This comes as the City continues its phased-in approach on the opening of 55 pools. According to a City statement, 21 pools opened on 1 November with an additional 20 opening mid-November. This staggered approach is being used to ensure the safety of staff and pool users and to ensure resources are rationalised in the best possible manner.
Arnolds said, “Demarcated pools within the city will facilitate with the water safety programmes. This as a measure to ensure children become water safe. Numbers are limited and will be facilitated on a first come first served basis.”
Pool users are requested to use the facilities with caution and are expected to follow Covid-19 regulations upon their visit. Arnolds added, “Pool lovers are requested to respect staff, observe regulations and respect the neighbourhood. Should safety regulations be compromised, the City will have no other alternative but to close pools.”
In compliance with the Covid-19 regulations, pools will open at 50 per cent capacity.
