🚧 Notice to Residents – Calcium Application Program 🚧

The Township of Amaranth Public Works Department will begin its annual calcium application program on June 8, with work expected to continue through to mid-July (weather permitting).
We know dust can sometimes feel like part of everyday life on our gravel roads, calcium helps keep it under control and improves driving conditions for everyone.
During application, residents may experience minor delays and are reminded to use caution when traveling through active work zones.
Please slow down and follow all posted signage and instructions from crews.
We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we complete this important maintenance work.

For questions or concerns, please contact the Public Works Department.
