Meaford has started to replace its ‘D’ Dock in its harbour.
The Municipality estimates the work will be completed in three to five days.
A release says, “As one of the main docks, ‘D’ dock has served the community for over 35 years, featuring the original wood decking and steel tube float system. Unfortunately, due to its design, the dock cannot be retrofitted or replaced in sections.”
The new dock will have new anchors, chains, and hardware, and will be designed in the same style as the other recently replaced docks in the harbour.
The municipality says the budget for the project is $389,000 to be funded through internal debt financing, covered by harbour revenues in 2024 and 2025.
