Somerset Regional Council (SRC) is seeking to engage an appropriately experienced Head Contractor

(incorporating a team of all necessary sub-consultants and sub-contractors) for provision of the full

range of demolition and construction services required for the construction of the Toogoolawah

Swimming Pool Amenities Building.

The facility is located at Factory Road, Toogoolawah. It is understood to have originally opened in 1975

with recent upgrades being completed as part of Stage 1 works.

Stage 1 upgrades consisted of the demolition of the existing 25m pool, wading pool, concourses,

equipment room structure, and shade structure with construction of a new 25m x 8 lane lap pool

including balance tank and disabled access ramp, filtration plant, heating plant and sanitation system; a

new equipment room and driveway; a new roof structure over the pool and other shade sail structures

to grassed areas; new concourses with new stairway and ramp accessing the gym; landscaping; mains

services and new carpark.

Following completion of Stage 1, Council have received approval to progress with the next component

of the project which is to consist of construction of the new amenities building.

Design has been developed for this next phase of facility upgrades and demolition of the existing

amenities building is required prior to the construction of the new amenities building. Both demolition

and construction are included in this stage of the delivery.
