Bellbowrie Pool to Get Winter Heat, Dog Park to Expand

Bellbowrie residents are in for a treat: warmer winter swims and a new dog park for small breeds.



Brisbane City Council has confirmed that works will soon commence to install a heat pump for the 50-metre pool at Bellbowrie Swimming Pool. This will ensure the facility is heated for the 2025 winter season. 

The pool will remain open during construction, with minimal disruption of swimming and exercise classes.

Additionally, the Council has announced plans to create a dedicated area for smaller dogs within the off-leash dog park at Booker Place Park. This decision follows ongoing advocacy from local dog owners who expressed concerns about the safety of their smaller pets.

The new small dog enclosure will comprise approximately one-tenth of the total off-leash dog area. It will include concrete pathways, a dedicated entry gate, additional seating, shade trees, and a new water tap and dog bowl. Construction is expected to begin in early 2025.



These improvements are part of the Council’s commitment to enhancing local amenities and improving the lives of Brisbane residents.
