Project update on Omemee Bridge Rehabilitation December 2, 2025

Kawartha Lakes - Work on the rehabilitation project is taking longer than expected after crews uncovered more extensive repair needs. The updated estimated completion date is December 19, 2025.

We understand this extension may cause ongoing inconvenience for those who travel through the area on King Street and surrounding residents. As crews uncovered additional structural issues, it became clear that more time was required to complete the repairs safely and to the standard our community expects. We sincerely apologize for the extended disruption and appreciate the patience residents, businesses and visitors have shown throughout this project.

The current detours will remain in place until the revised completion date. We are working closely with contractors to complete the remaining work as efficiently as possible.

We will continue to share updates as work progresses. Thank you again for your understanding and cooperation as we complete these important improvements.
