Fenelon Falls Bridge to Undergo Repair Work
Media Release from City of Kawartha Lakes
Residents can expect to see construction work starting to take place mid to late January on the Fenelon Falls Bridge located on Lindsay Street. Clearwater Structures will be on site installing new steels frames as a proactive measure to increase support for the structure.
The construction work is expected to take three to four weeks to complete. The majority of the work will take place underneath the bridge, so there should be minimal impact to traffic, however there may be times where delays could occur should access to the road be required.
The Fenelon Falls Bridge is expected to undergo a full rehabilitation project in the near future. D.M. Wills and Associates consulting firm conducted a full survey of the bridge in September 2020 for phase one for the project. Within this survey, it was identified that the steel support beams should be installed to ensure the continued stability of the bridge until a full rehab can take place.
