River stabilization project underway

Changing landscape – The banks of the Mailtland River through part of Harriston took on a new look after some recent tree removal as part of a riverbank rehabilitation and stabilization project in response to a major flood in June of 2017. Trees were removed in an area of approximately 1.4 hectares, in the western portion of Harriston, to allow shoreline access to stabilize the eroded area. The work is being funded through the province’s Municipal Disaster Recovery Assistance  program.   Photo by Patrick Raftis
