Construction of a parking lot at the Abacus Rifle Range at Farnham Garrison

The Department of National Defence (DND) has proposed a project. The project involves expanding the parking area located near the Abacus shooting range in order to allow for the relocation of shed E204 as well as the shooting club shed. The work will be carried out manually and with the use of small-scale equipment, such as a backhoe, a ten-wheel truck, and any other light equipment required to ensure safe and efficient execution. The selected work methods are intended to minimize impacts on surrounding areas while ensuring compliance with applicable safety and quality standards.

Latest update
