The Village of Point Edward has worked out a proposed land swap with the Federal Bridge Corporation.

If the deal is approved, the Village would obtain former residential lots adjacent to the Point Edward Memorial Arena and Veterans Park. The land would be used to expand the park for passive use, the Village said.

Federal Bridge Corporation would obtain the former Bridge Street road allowance, allowing it to better control access to the bridge plaza.

An open house was held June 8, followed by a 30-day public comment period.
