We are developing a comprehensive, innovative and achievable Waterfront and Riverwalk Master Plan. The Master Plan is a community focused exercise that will create unique and innovative waterfront and riverwalk areas. These areas will be integrated with the natural environment and enhance connectivity, walkability, livability and quality of life for residents and visitors. The Master Plan will serve as a blueprint for implementation and will guide investment with the intention of supporting the Municipality’s commitment to a high quality of life for residents and for those who will come to enjoy all that Port Hope has to offer.
