Udora Roads Upgrades
In June 2021, the Town of Georgina assumed the ownership of roads in the Estonian Summer Homes Association and Kova subdivision in Udora. This includes the maintenance of the roads and addressing deficiencies. The Town is in the planning stage of bringing these roads to an acceptable standard as an all-season gravel road surface. An engineering consultant will complete the field studies necessary to design the upgrades. It is anticipated that the detailed engineering design will be completed in 2024, with the first construction contract beginning in 2025 or 2026. It is planned that the roads will be constructed in sections over a 10-year time period. Phase 2 is the detailed design for the project. The Town is working on the detailed design and it should be completed by the end of 2024 to early 2025.
