The City of Vernon’s new multi-use path project on Silver Star Road is nearly done.
The final phase is slated to begin as early as Monday, April 29, when crews will begin raising manholes in preparation for the top surface paving along Silver Star Road between East Dedecker Road and L & A Road.
The final paving project aims to enhance the multi-use path along Silver Star Road, providing improved accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists to the Foothills area.
Construction is expected to be complete by May 13.
Temporary detours will be in place for motorists:
• Motorists travelling north-east will continue to use Silver Star Road with variable detours at L & A Road;
• Motorists travelling south-west will be detoured along East Dedecker Road, L & A Road to Rimer Road.
Residents who live within the construction area are reminded to use caution when entering and exiting their properties and to follow the detours accordingly.
Motorists are reminded to slow down in construction and detour zones, and obey all traffic control measures.
