EFFECTIVE: Immediately
STATUS: All outdoor swimming, lessons, and facility operations are closed.
Due to an Air Quality Index (AQI) of 275 the City of London has made the decision to close the city pool. At this level, air pollution poses significant health risks for everyone, especially children, older adults, and individuals with respiratory or heart conditions.
The safety of our community is our top priority. Strenuous outdoor exertion in this air can lead to serious health issues. We will continue to monitor the conditions and provide updates regarding when it is safe to resume normal pool activities.
Please monitor the City of London Website or our social media channels for reopening updates. You can track real-time air quality in our area at AirNow.gov.
