Brockville Memorial Centre roof gets $978,000 overhaul to stop leaks and improve safety

Construction is expected to finish in August, just in time for the next winter ice season

Renovations are underway at the Brockville Memorial Civic Centre as part of a $978,000 roof replacement project. The work is part of the city’s Multi-Use Recreation Facility (MURF) plan and comes after the existing roof developed leaks and safety concerns.

The project, funded by the Ministry of Sport in 2025, began this month with phased work to remove sections of the flat roof while keeping parts of the facility open.

Brockville Mayor Matt Wren explained what that means for the Centre when it comes to accessibility.

Construction is expected to finish in August, just in time for the next winter ice season.

The upgrade aims to improve safety and prevent future damage.
