Three local projects have received infrastructure funding through the Rural and Northern Communities Infrastructure Stream of the Investing in Canada infrastructure plan. MP for Hastings-Lennox and Addington Mike Bossio made the announcement:
MPP Daryl Kramp was also on hand as the funding comes from both the Provincial and Federal Governments:
In Tyendinaga Township, a new roundabout will be built at the intersection of Deseronto and Belleville Roads. In the Township of Stone Mills, sections of Durham and Brock Streets will be widened and replaced with new asphalt, curbs, and sidewalks, which will result in better road conditions and increased safety. In Tweed, the Boundary Bridge, which has been closed since 2018, will be replaced with a new single-lane superstructure. The Government of Canada is investing over $2.4 million dollars and the Government of Ontario is contributing over $1.4 million towards these projects. Tyendinaga Township and the County of Lennox and Addington are investing over $105,000 for the roundabout. The Municipality of Tweed is providing over $295,000, and the Township of Stone Mills is contributing more than $186,000 to their respective projects.
