Timeframe Expected completion March 2025
Scope of works

New build toilet and changeroom, to service the pool, playground, skatepark and Rainbow Track

March 2025 update

Blockwork has been completed, and power has been connected. Painters have commenced, and the pool fence has been re-installed.

An EOI for a mural artist to paint the exterior has been open from 19 March – 2 April, with the successful artist to be announced shortly. The artist is set to commence works, prior to the toilet block opening.

Unfortunately due to the ongoing wet weather this week, the grounds around the toilet block are not suitable for completing the turf installation, or welcoming visitors to the new amenity. A new date for opening will be shared with the community in coming weeks.

January 2025 update

Thanks to the Department of Regional NSW funding, Lismore City Council has commenced work on the $400,000 public toilet block at Peace Park in Nimbin.

 

This much-anticipated facility has been designed to meet the needs of a diverse range of users. The new toilet block will feature:
  • An accessible toilet/change room with shower and single toilet cubicle to service the skate park, playground, Nimbin Rainbow Walking Track and surrounding areas.
  • An accessible toilet/changeroom with shower to service Nimbin Pool users.
The facility is built with resilience and practicality in mind, ensuring it can be easily cleaned and maintained, even after potential flooding or damage.
 
Site fencing is set up to ensure the public can still access and safely use Nimbin Pool during construction, which is expected to be finalised in March.
 
The existing shade sail in the construction area will be relocated to the other end of the pool, to provide further shade for users.
 
Adjoining footpaths, access to drinking water and mural artworks are being considered and will be determined as construction is finalised.
 
This project is part of Lismore City Council’s broader effort to maintain and improve public amenities. 23 public toilet upgrades are planned across the LGA and are currently underway. This will ensure access to clean and comfortable public amenities at local parks and rest stops for our residents and visitors alike.
