Fourth Avenue set to reopen as work on major sewer main project wraps up

KAMLOOPS — A lengthy sewer main project on Fourth Avenue in downtown Kamloops is scheduled to come to an end this week.

The City of Kamloops says paving work on Fourth Avenue between St. Paul Street and Battle Street has wrapped up, bringing the project one step closer to the finish line.

Line painting work is scheduled to take place before the downtown corridor reopens to traffic. That, the city said, should happen either by end of day Tuesday (May 5) or by Wednesday morning.

“This has been an impactful project and we truly appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding along the way,” a statement from the city said. “In mid-May, crews will need to return to Fourth Avenue and Victoria Street to replace brickwork. Further details on timing and impacts will be shared as soon as they are available.”
