UPDATE: Port Credit Active Transportation Bridge over the Credit River

By Parks, Resources, Ward 1

Councillor Dasko has recently received an update from Transportation and Works staff regarding the pedestrian bridge that will span the Credit River just South of the train bridge.

Capital Works will be completing some road works on Front Street North, which will include realigning the sidewalk and constructing a parking lay-by in front of the Royal Canadian Legion. This work is in preparation for the new Port Credit Active Transportation Bridge which will connect Front St N, cross the Credit River and connect into Memorial Park.

The estimated date for this work is Spring-Summer 2024. In the meantime, an archaeological investigation is scheduled for October 2023.  The bridge construction will then commence in 2025.

Councillor Dasko will post updates as they become available.

Another First for Ward 1 and Our Community!

By Announcement, Parks, Stephen’s Initiatives, Ward 1

I am very excited to announce that construction has begun for the refrigerated ice rink in Port Credit’s Memorial Park!

While preserving the existing topography of the park, the design of the loop will be 3.5 metres wide (11 feet wide) and 200 metres long (over 700 feet long). It will be a walking track in the summer season and will add to the functionality during festival seasons.
Coming this Winter 2023 !!
