Mackay Regional Council has delivered some fresh upgrades to one local favourite, while working swiftly to address temporary closures at another community asset.
Glenfields Park in Glenella has officially reopened following refurbishment works completed by council’s Parks crews. The upgrades include new concrete edging around the playground, fresh sand, a new bench seat, drainage improvements, earthworks and new turf — all designed to enhance both usability and safety for local families.
Meanwhile, the Pioneer Swim Centre is temporarily closed due to emergent equipment maintenance. Council has been working closely with the facility operator and contractors since the weekend and is aiming to reopen the pool as soon as possible.
In the meantime, all swim passes and memberships will be honoured at the Mackay Aquatic Recreation Complex, ensuring locals can still dive into their usual routines.
Keep an eye on council’s website and social media for further updates.
