A mechanical issue from last night (September 28th) has forced the closure of a part of the Genesis Place Aquatic Facility.

"Last night at about 9:45 at night, we experienced a mechanical issue with a rupture of the main manifold to the leisure pools, " said Genesis Place Manager Greg Lockert.

Lockert said crews are working quickly to fix the issue, but there is no specific timeline for reopening the pool.

Thankfully, Lockert said the leisure pool is the only part of the aquatic centre that's closed.

"The tot pool, lane pool, dive tank, hot tub and steam room are still open."
