Campbellford Downtown Waterfront Development

In 2006, the Municipality of Trent Hills opened Phase 1 of the Campbellford Downtown Waterfront.  The project included a riverwalk, lighting, benches, decorative signage and bollards, and docking services for boaters of the Trent Severn Waterway.

The purpose of the project:

  • Create a gateway & public access to the downtown waterfront
     
  • Utilize the downtown streetscape design theme

  • Engage the community in creating the vision and with the implementation

  • Encourage appropriate investment and development

In 2008, Phase 2 of the downtown waterfront development began and construction of this area was completed in 2009.   A group of local contractors were engaged to complete the construction of the project.  The project has had tremendous partnership support from the following organizations: Campbellford BIA, Trent Hills & District Chamber of Commerce, Campbellford/Seymour Community Foundation, Canada-Ontario Infrastructure Program, Rotary Club of Campbellford, Ontario Rural Economic Development Program, Northumberland Community Futures Corporation, Hydro One, and Trent Severn Waterway
