Work is getting underway on an initiative to protect the shoreline and prevent erosion along the Route 2 Souris Causeway. The project will see two armour stone groynes, a sandstone rock sill, and two sandstone reefs installed.
The work is being done along the south shoreline of the Souris Beach Gateway Park and extends west to the Route 2 causeway. Hauling of the armour stone and sandstone started this past week and the installation work is to begin on January 20th.
The parking lot and beach will be closed during construction. The work is expected to be completed by March.
