The Appleby Creek Flood Mitigation Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (ACFMEA) Study was completed in February 2019. The ACFMEA study evaluated alternative solutions along Appleby Creek, from New Street to the GO Transit Rail corridor (near Appleby Go Train Station), to identify specific opportunities to reduce flooding risk and protect the natural heritage features and functions within the study corridor. The ACFMEA recommended preferred solutions for three flood-vulnerable areas within the study corridor.
