Appleby Creek Erosion Control Project – Lakeshore Road to Lake Ontario

General Overview

Appleby Creek Erosion Control Environmental Assessment (EA) Study completed in 2020 identified channel erosion and slope destabilization within the Appleby Creek area from South Service Road to Lake Ontario. The EA recommended erosion reduction strategies to be completed in phases.

In the first phase, the City of Burlington will be doing Appleby Creek restoration works from upstream of Lakeshore Road to Lake Ontario for approximately 210m as shown in the image. The work will include bank protection, minor channel realignment, profile corrections for fish habitat improvements and provide protection to the Lakeshore Road bridge area.
