A $17.8M school and housing project in Port Elgin faces accessibility and traffic concerns despite a favorable traffic study.
A Saugeen Shores Accessibility Advisory Committee reviewed plans on February 11, 2026, for a $17.8 million JK-6 school, 108 stacked townhouses, and mixed-use commercial developments in Port Elgin’s north end.
The school, set to serve 409 students, includes a proposed street-side drop-off with a recommended dropped curb for accessibility.
The townhouse project, revised from an apartment plan, features underground parking and no ground-level units, raising access concerns.
Committee members questioned one-way traffic and urged better pedestrian connections, suggesting a lighted crosswalk near Food Basics.
A traffic study found no changes needed.
Draft plans include emergency access and improved walkways, but council has not yet reviewed the proposals.
