Published purpose

The project will rebuild and enhance the Graves Island Provincial Park causeway, the sole access to the island, to protect it from the impacts of flooding, erosion, and sea level rise. Once complete, the Project will allow increased capacity of the causeway and ensure it is usable beyond the predicted sea level rise by 2100. Additionally, the project will significantly reduce economic losses and the number of people directly affected that are caused by not having access to the island via the causeway.
