Port Stanley is to benefit from $17 million in federal funding to protect shoreline areas from storm surges. As announced Monday morning in the community, the investment will fund enhancements to the existing dune protection system, the construction of a new harbour entrance breakwater, raising the crest of an existing breakwater and upgrading the community’s storm water management system. Central Elgin Mayor Andrew Sloan noted the upgrades will “benefit the residents, businesses and visitors going forward.”
