Construction is expected to continue to the fall to complete a busy East Hill road.
Crews will begin the next phase of construction on the 32nd Avenue reconstruction project as early as Friday, June 7.
The work includes the replacement of aging infrastructure such as water main, storm sewer, and sanitary sewer utility lines, and road and sidewalk pavement, between 18th and 15th streets.
The road will be accessible to local traffic only during construction. Detour routes are available to the north and south on 37th and 25th avenues.
“Please slow down if travelling near the area and obey all traffic control signage. The city apologizes for any inconvenience this road closure may cause and appreciates everyone’s patience while this major infrastructure project is being completed,” the city said.
The project is part of Vernon council’s commitment to replacing aged infrastructure. Funding for the project is provided, in part, by the Government of Canada, through the Federal Gas Tax Fund.
