City of Burlington

Project Overview

Shoreline Restoration Ltd. was contracted by the City of Burlington to address ongoing erosion, aging shoreline structures, and public safety concerns along a key section of the waterfront. The project began with a full assessment of the existing embankments, stormwater impacts, and load-bearing conditions around public walkways and recreational areas. Using this data, our team developed a comprehensive restoration plan that balanced structural resilience with environmental stewardship.

Construction work included the installation of heavy armour stone, slope reconstruction, geotechnical stabilization, and strategic grading to redirect water flow and prevent further erosion. Given Burlington’s highly trafficked waterfront, work zones were carefully managed to maintain public access where possible while ensuring safety and minimizing disruption. Our team integrated modern construction techniques with precision equipment to deliver clean, consistent, and durable shoreline structures capable of withstanding fluctuating lake levels and severe weather events.

Throughout the project, Shoreline Restoration Ltd. maintained close coordination with municipal staff, conservation authorities, and environmental monitors to meet all regulatory requirements and protect sensitive shoreline habitats. The result is a strengthened and visually cohesive shoreline that enhances public safety, increases long-term structural integrity, and preserves the natural appeal of Burlington’s waterfront. This project demonstrates Shoreline Restoration’s expertise in delivering complex municipal shoreline restorations with professionalism, efficiency, and environmental responsibility.
