Aug 5, 2019 | 10:00 AM

KAMLOOPS — Drivers in the Valleyview, Rose Hill, and Juniper Ridge areas will want to take note of new construction starting along Valleyview Drive tomorrow (Aug. 6)

Paving and curbing will take place from the Trans Canada Highway Overpass along Valleyview Drive to Russet Wynd, as part of the Valleyview Drive Road Improvements Project.

The City of Kamloops contract BA Dawson Blacktop to carry out the project, with construction scheduled Monday – Saturday from 7 a.m to 5 p.m until fall of 2019.

Traffic will be reduced to single-lane alternating, and traffic control personnel will be on hand for direction.

Additionally, the bus stops along Valleyview Drive in the section between the Trans Canada Highway overpass and Russet Wynd will be closed during the project, with temporary bus stop detours placed elsewhere.
