The City of Swan, located in Perth’s eastern region has advised that construction has commenced on the $108 million regional-level Ellenbrook aquatic and recreation centre - expected to be completed in 2027.

The Australian Government has committed $30 million to the project and the Western Australian Government has committed $12 million.

Land for the site has been provided to the City of Swan by the State Government, allowing the City to build the facility in a prime location and to the size required to support future expansion of the centre.

Deputy Premier and Member for West Swan Rita Saffioti said she was thrilled to see the start of construction at Swan Active Ellenbrook and noted "We're delivering on our promises for the people of Ellenbrook and soon they will have the regional-level leisure facility they deserve, in the heart of a well-connected precinct.

Local State Member for Hasluck Tania Lawrence said the start of works at Swan Active Ellenbrook signals a new era for the community and added "we all know that Ellenbrook has waited a long time for a pool.

"It is fantastic to now see the ground being broken on this project.”
