Project Background:

In early 2024, the Town completed its Master Drainage Plan (MDP), which assessed current and future drainage needs and identified areas with existing challenges. Based on the MDP’s recommendations, the Town has initiated a Class Environmental Assessment in partnership with Aquafor Beech Limited to evaluate options and identify preferred solutions for the following storm system outlets:

• Outlet 11 – Adelaide Street
• Outlet 12 – Island Street
• Outlet 13A – Bay Street
• Outlet 13B – Watercourse South of Bay Street
• Outlet 14 – Huron Street South

The study area includes municipal lands and easements within the catchment areas between High Street and South Street.
