Kelowna residents are invited to review the concept design for the Sutherland Ave. Active Transportation Corridor at an upcoming open house.

On Thurs, April 28 from 4 to 6:30 p.m., City of Kelowna staff will be on hand at the Coast Capri Hotel with information and designs.

“Sutherland Avenue has been identified as the major east-west Active Transportation Corridor due to its central location and opportunities for improved connectivity,” said Mahesh Tripathi, Traffic Technician. “Staff will be available at the session to answer questions and provide an opportunity for input.”

The corridor is planned to include a two-way cycle track separated by a concrete median. Existing parking on the south side of will be retained. Construction is planned in several phases with completion anticipated by 2020.
