In mid-November 2021, the Town of Bracebridge undertook the replacement of the Germania Road Culvert located approximately 0.5 kilometres east of Waters Road in Draper Ward.
The $750,000 construction project that includes installing four (4) 2,200 mm diameter culverts and raising the road, is expected to substantially reduce the occurrence of flooding and road closures on that section of Germania Road.
Due to challenging site conditions, the construction project was not completed prior to the onset of winter and was suspended but is now set to resume.
As a result, Germania Road from Waters Road to the project site will be fully closed to through traffic on Wednesday, June 8, 2022 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Detour routes, as shown on the map in Appendix ‘A’, are posted ahead of the construction area.
The Town appreciates the public’s patience while it works to upgrade the infrastructure.
