Lanark County to host Public Information Centre for Phase 2 of the 5 Arches Bridge rehabilitation in 2026
Lanark County plans to proceed with Phase 2 of the rehabilitation of the historic 5 Arches Bridge in Pakenham during the 2026 construction season, continuing work to preserve the structure and extend its service life while conserving its heritage character.
To keep residents informed and provide an opportunity for public input, Lanark County has planned a Public Information Centre (PIC) where members of the public can learn more about the upcoming work, anticipated construction timing, traffic impacts, and detour planning.
⏰Thursday, April 16 from 5 to 7 p.m.
📍Pakenham Library, 128 MacFarlane St., Pakenham.
The PIC will be an open house format with County staff and project representatives available to answer questions. No formal presentation is scheduled, and attendees are welcome to drop in at any time during the event.
The 5 Arches Bridge is a designated heritage structure and an important transportation link within the community. Phase 2 of the rehabilitation project will build on work completed during 2025 and will include masonry rehabilitation and roadway approach improvements to ensure the bridge remains safe and serviceable for years to come.
“Rehabilitation of the 5 Arches Bridge is part of Lanark County’s long term asset management strategy, supporting the preservation of existing infrastructure, reducing long term lifecycle costs, and minimizing future disruptions to the community,” said Public Works Director Sean Derouin.
Additional information and project updates will be shared as the 2026 construction season approaches on the County website under Government/Public Consultation/Bridge Construction: www.lanarkcounty.ca/government/public-consultation/#1751893784205-b8fe6731-94c6 ... See MoreSee Less
