Public input sessions set for Okanagan rail trail

Open houses will be held in Oyama, Winfield and Coldstream

Residents can have their say on development of the Okanagan rail trail.

The jurisdictions involved are preparing a  planning and design process for the Coldstream to Kelowna corridor.

“Residents are invited to review the concept and give their feedback,” said Andrew Gibbs, project manager.

Open houses will be held March 14 from 4 to 6:30 p.m. at the Oyama Community Hall , March 16 from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Winfield Memorial Hall and March 17 from 4 to 6:30 p.m. at the Coldstream municipal office.

“Staff will be on hand to answer questions regarding the design and provide an opportunity for input at the following public information opportunities,” said Gibbs.

Residents unable to attend can also provide feedback through an online survey at www.getinvolved.kelowna.ca. Online input will be open between March 14 and 27.

“Opportunities are being explored to work with the community, external fundraisers and granting agencies to secure the funds necessary to develop the corridor for recreational use,” said Gibbs.
