City moves forward motion to install accessible elevator at Regina's renewed Wascana Pool

On Wednesday, executive committee voted in favour of a motion that would install an outside elevator at the new Wascana Pool, allowing everyone to use the waterslides.

Under the current design, the taller waterslides are only accessible by stairs. However, the smaller slide is wheelchair-friendly.

Following research and consultation, it recommended installing an elevator to make the pool 100 per cent accessible. Councillors believe it would be one of the first outdoor pool elevators in North America.

The elevator would cost $555,000 to install. It would cost another $27,000 annually to operate.

The renewed Wascana Pool is on track to open this year. However, it would take an additional 12 months to install an elevator. The city manager told council that the elevator would be fully operational no later than 2025.
