The project is one of the City of West Kelowna害羞草研究所檚 largest road improvement projects. Work will start in the second week of May.
The project will include road and area upgrades between McGinnis and Glen Abbey Roads, the addition of a sidewalk connection to Webber Road, as well as the realignment of the Glenrosa/McIver intersection.
