Members of Council and Township staff toured the Ivy Lea Wharf December 4 2023 to view the progress made on the replacement project.
In addition to Greer Galloway, who oversaw the project, and Kehoe Marine, who is responsible for all construction at the site, the design of the new wharf was completed by JML Engineering from Thunder Bay.
The project was originally slated for completion by the end of November but is now expected to be completed in January 2024 due to delays in the supply chain for materials needed to finish the job.
The Ivy Lea Wharf Project involves the complete replacement of the old wharf and floating docks with new structures. Amongst the many improvements to the wharf, the location of the boat ramp has been reoriented to allow straight-in water access and egress rather than the ninety-degree turn on the old ramp. The project represents a $2.1 million (inclusive of Non-Rebatable HST) investment by the Township for the wharf design, construction, and oversight.
