The Municipality of Huron Shores is closely monitoring Chevis Road, which is currently the only access route into the Dean Lake community following the closure of the Dean Lake Bridge due to erosion concerns.

With rising river levels and rain in the forecast, conditions may change quickly. We are monitoring the situation closely to ensure access is maintained as long as it is safe to do so.

Residents are encouraged to be prepared in case Chevis Road becomes impassable. Please ensure you have food, water, medications, and fuel on hand.

Public Works staff are patrolling the area regularly, and we are coordinating with Emergency Management Ontario to ensure supports are ready if needed. Plans are in place to respond should conditions worsen.

We encourage residents to share this information with neighbours and families. Updates will be posted on the Municipality’s website and social media channels as they become available. If you notice any changes to Chevis Road, call Public Works at 705-542-6053.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
