A mainland detour route will be in place during construction and clearly marked with signage.
Motorists are being reminded about upcoming overnight closures as rehabilitation work continues on the Howe Island ferry docks.
Clearwater Structures Inc. has been awarded Contract 2022-4030 by the Ministry of Transportation to complete upgrades at both the Howe Island mainland terminal and the Frontenac Islands Township-side dock.
Construction on the project is scheduled to be completed by April 30, 2026. During the work, a mainland detour route will be in place and clearly marked with signage.
The Township’s three-car ferry will remain in extended operation during closures to help minimize disruption.
Planned eight-hour nighttime ferry dock closures are scheduled for February 12 from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. February 13, and February 16 from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. February 17.
The island-side parking lot will remain closed for the duration of the project to keep access routes clear.
