Work Resumes Along North Shore Road

This photo shows the rehabilitation work happening along the North Shore, as well as work already completed. On the south (left) side of the photo is North Shore Park.

The Town is resuming rehabilitation work on the shoreline along North Shore Road, starting the last week of August. This is a continuation of work started in 2022 to fix the trail and protect the road, after several years of high-water levels eroded the shoreline.

The plan is to place large armour stone along the water’s edge (toe of slope) and then rebuild the slope up to the existing trail and rehabilitation of the area. Crews will then reconstruct a three-metre-wide trail beside the existing road. The project also includes an access ramp from the trail to the lake. The Town is starting the work later in the summer again this year to avoid impacting any spawning fish.

The work is expected to last until mid-to-late December. Road closure and detour information will follow shortly.

This work is listed in the 2023 Business Plan as a Capital Highlight for Development Services, as approved by Council (p. 41).
