Published purpose

The City of Miramichi is seeking to mitigate riverbank erosion due to combined exposure to wind, waves, and storm surges. The gradual deterioration of the shoreline has destabilized Water Street, threatening public safety, critical infrastructure, transportation networks, and the environment. The project would rehabilitate 2980 meters of the Water Street riverbank through slope stabilization measures including the installation of armour rip rap and incorporation of selective tree planting. This would ensure the safety and functionality of Water Street, thereby protecting critical infrastructure and the socio-economic and environmental wellbeing of the community.
