Location: Lansdowne Street N at Georgian Trail
The Town of The Blue Mountains would like to invite residents to attend a celebration and ribbon-cutting ceremony for a new fish culvert that has been installed in the Little Beaver River by the Beaver River Watershed Initiative.
The Ribbon Cutting Ceremony is scheduled for 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, April 22, 2023, on the Georgian Trail west of Lansdowne Street N in Thornbury. The rain date for the event is Sunday, April 23, 2023, at 11:00 a.m.
The fish culvert was funded and installed by the Beaver River Watershed Initiative to help increase the diversity of fish species in the Little Beaver River by allowing the movement of fish to access spawning beds and habitats throughout the watershed. The new culvert will allow fish movement through the area for the first time since 1872.
