Beginning next week, construction crews will conduct watermain connection work along Boucherie and Ogden Roads, which may impact water service in the area for one day.

On Wednesday, Oct. 11, Bluepoint Construction crews are scheduled to do watermain tie-in work at the intersection of Boucherie and Ogden Roads. This work is required to connect residents to the Rose Valley Water Treatment Plant (RVWTP) scheduled to be completed later this fall.

As part of this ongoing work, properties may experience low water pressure from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

We are also encouraging residents to reduce their water consumption during this time to allow crews to restore the water system as soon as possible safely and efficiently.

• Ogden Road
• Westbrook Drive
• Westview Road
• McCartney Road
• Montigny Road
• Regal Road
• Cox Road
• Addison Road
• Kitson Court
• Oak Barrel Place

Please note, this work is subject to weather conditions, contractor schedule changes and other factors.

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