FY 2025-26 · 2026-02-06
Summary
The proposed project will address flooding risks and erosion along the Lake Ontario shoreline in the Town of Lincoln. The planned shoreline improvements and road relocations will enable year-round access to the lakefront residences, businesses, farms, and parks.Our project will adapt the existing shoreline to address rising water levels in Lake Ontario as observed in 2017 and 2019. The increased lake levels, in combination with high winds, wakes and severe storm events, have caused significant road damage and shoreline erosion.

Description (French)
Le projet proposé permettra de remédier aux risques d'inondation et d'érosion le long du rivage du lac Ontario dans la ville de Lincoln. Les améliorations prévues du littoral et les déplacements de routes permettront d'accéder toute l'année aux résidences, aux entreprises, aux fermes et aux parcs situés au bord du lac.Notre projet adaptera le littoral existant pour faire face à la hausse des niveaux d'eau du lac Ontario observée en 2017 et 2019. L'augmentation du niveau du lac, combinée à des vents violents, à des sillages et à des tempêtes violentes, a causé d'importants dommages aux routes et une érosion des berges. Notre projet vise à déplacer les routes existantes endommagées par les inondations et l'érosion, et à améliorer l'infrastructure de protection du littoral en prévision des événements futurs.
