Construction is well underway for a new multi-use pathway along Silver Star Road.
Crews are currently in phase 1 of the project, which includes construction of a pathway between Pleasant Valley Road and the Silver Star Gateway Business Park, as well as between BX Elementary School and Blackcomb Way.
A detour is in place for a portion of Silver Star Road between L&A Road and East Dedecker Road while crews install a storm main and related infrastructure. The detour is expected to remain in place until July 15.
In the meantime, a detour along Star Road has finished and two-way traffic has returned to Silver Star Road between the south end of Star Road and Blackcomb Way. Later this fall, another detour along Star Road may be required for a few days while crews pave the multi-use pathway.
Motorists are reminded to slow down in construction and detour zones, and obey all traffic control measures. The City appreciates everyone’s patience and understanding while this major infrastructure project is being completed.
Further updates on the Silver Star Road Multi-Use Pathway Project will be provided as they become available. For more information on this and other infrastructure projects taking place across Vernon in 2022, please visit the City’s website at vernon.ca/capitalworks.
