Road work on: Deer River Hatchery Bridge, the County Road (CR) 44 Cross-Culverts and the Burnt Dam Bridge
The Corporation of the County of Peterborough (County) is preparing for the replacement of the Deer River Hatchery Bridge, the County Road (CR) 44 Cross-Culverts and the replacement, rehabilitation, retirement or repurposing of the Burnt Dam Bridge, all located in the Township of Havelock-Belmont-Methuen. The structure locations are shown below.
The County has retained D.M. Wills Associates Limited (Wills) to undertake the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Municipal Class EA), structural engineering and design services for these projects. The proposed work for the Deer River Hatchery Bridge is considered to be a Schedule ‘B’ undertaking, the Burnt Dam Bridge is considered to be a Schedule ‘A+’ undertaking and the County Road 44 Cross-Culverts are considered to be a Schedule ‘A’ undertaking in accordance with the Municipal Class EA. Subject to Class EA approval, including comments received as a result of this Notice and future Public Information Centres (PICs), the County intends to proceed with the planning, design and implementation of the preferred alternative solution for each structure.
Public and agency consultation is an important component of the Class EA process. Public and agency input are invited for incorporation into the planning and design of the project. The first of two PICs will be online with documents available for review at the following link:
