I am pleased to announce that the City of Tshwane has opened its public swimming pools across all seven regions of Tshwane just in time to welcome spring. Our swimming pools play an important part in the recreational activities offered by the municipality for all Tshwane residents.
The City has 20 swimming pools spread across Tshwane, 16 of which have opened from yesterday, 1 September 2022. We have ensured that there is at least one swimming pool open in each region. Two more pools will be opened on 16 September, while the other two pools are still undergoing work to speedily return them to operation.
The City encourages residents to use these facilities, but it is important that we do not damage this recreational infrastructure. We must also treat fellow pool visitors with respect so that all residents can safely enjoy these facilities all season long.
I would like to remind residents of the following general rules for all our swimming facilities:
1. The following are not allowed at our swimming pools:
- Alcoholic beverages
- Pets and animals
- Dangerous games
- Throwing around dangerous objects
2. All refuse must be placed in the refuse bins.
3. Misbehaviour will result in offenders being barred from the swimming pool and swimming pool grounds.
4. Any reasonable request by an official on duty must be obeyed.
5. Only recognised swimwear is allowed.
6. All facilities are used at own risk.
