Planning and research is under way for the Sylvan Glen Bridge Replacement project. The Municipality of Port Hope is currently undertaking a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA). The Sylvan Glen Bridge is located on Sylvan Glen Road approximately 0.7 km south of 4th Line Road at the Ganaraska River.
