Park Street

The Township of Huron-Kinloss is preparing for a series of upcoming road reconstruction projects that are planned for the southwest area of Ripley, over the next several years. Our current plan is to complete these projects in multiple phases that include street upgrades to an urban design, which will include concrete curb and gutter, storm sewers and new sidewalks wherever possible.

The areas for these reconstruction projects include Tain Street, McGill Street, Gladstone Street and Park Street. The Township intends to host an in-person information session for Phases 2-5 that is tentatively scheduled for 2024. We will notify residents when the Open House date is made available.

We understand the importance of this reconstruction project and how it may impact your property and street. Your feedback, comments and concerns are valuable to us and will help us shape the final design of this project. Bringing this feedback to us in advance is strongly recommended as soon as possible, as any significant changes to the design will likely not be possible after the final design is proposed at the Open House. The Open House will include further details on the proposed construction process.

You can provide comments and post any questions you have regarding this project on this engagement page and Township staff will respond accordingly. Alternatively, questions and concerns can be directed to John Yungblut, the Director of Public Works at jyungblut@huronkinloss.com or contact the Township Office at (519) 395-3735. Please note that John is currently working remotely, so phone calls will be returned as soon as possible.

Please be aware that the construction of each phase will be subject to Council approval and budget constraints. The timelines described in this letter are subject to change.

    Will there be curbs on park st from gladstone to cemetary

    Charlene asked over 1 year ago

    The current plan is to end the concrete curb and gutter on Park St. on the west side of Gladstone St. and taper the road to match the road to the cemetery.

    Thank you for asking.  This project does not currently include any improvements east of Huron St., however, we are investigating the possibility of adding this section of Park St. to our 10 Year Capital Plan. Due to the drainage improvements required, upgrades to Park St. east of Huron St. will have to be delayed until the Park St. Municipal Drain project is completed.  At that point, we will be able to provide Council with a more realistic timeline for their review.
