The Proposed Project

The Department of National Defence (DND) has proposed a project which involves the improvement and re-opening of the 12-bay Medium Girder Bridge bridging training site located along Brennan Lake in the 2 Combat Engineer Regiment back compound. Mitigation measures will be implemented to protect the adjacent water bodies and wetlands from negative impacts during construction.
