The Township of Bonnechere Valley recognizes that it must manage its asset costs effectively. For this reason, the municipality has initiated a Road Management Study. This study will provide the municipality with a comprehensive plan in order to manage its road network over the next 5 years

The Purpose of the Road Management Study is to inventory and assess the road network within the Municipality from which a financial program for the maintenance and capital improvements can be derived.

This study is part of the long term strategic planning process for The Township of Bonnechere Valley.

The Following chart displays long term planning for Municipal Equipment Replacement Needs and the associated costs.
