FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Friday, March 17, 2023

Beginning next week, construction crews will begin work to install the next section of water Transmission Mains on Westlake Road and Menu Road to connect to the Rose Valley Water Treatment Plant (RVWTP). This work is necessary to connect residents to the new plant.

 

Starting Monday, March 20, a single-lane alternating traffic pattern will be in effect on Westlake Road from Horizon Drive to West Kelowna Road weekdays from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. until April 26. Once this section is complete, crews will continue construction on Parkinson Road, from Pettman to Westlake Road. The work area will be open to vehicle traffic evenings, weekends and holidays.

 

On Tuesday, March 21, a thru-traffic schedule will go in effect on Menu and Ourtoland Roads weekdays from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Crews have completed rock hammering work ahead of schedule and will transition to installing pipe. Once this section is complete, crews will continue construction on Ourtoland and Ogden Roads, where alternative traffic plans will be used.

 

Please drive with caution through the work areas as these roads remain in construction condition. The construction schedule is subject to weather conditions, contractor schedule changes and other factors.

 

Work is being coordinated to take place during spring break, when traffic volumes through the work areas are reduced. Pedestrian, emergency services, transit and scheduled garbage collection will have access through the construction zones.

 

Westlake Road traffic pattern changes: For approximately six weeks

Menu Road traffic pattern changes: For approximately seven weeks

Motorists are asked to watch their speed and follow directions of traffic control personnel. Cyclists are encouraged to follow posted detours or dismount through the construction zone.

 

To minimize impacts to residents, construction is also being coordinated with active transportation upgrades on Westlake and Parkinson Roads, from West Kelowna Road to Pettman Road. Advanced notice for the next stage of work will be shared with the community prior to construction.

The City of West Kelowna and construction crews thank residents for their patience during construction.
