Vernon motorists may experience minor traffic disruptions if they’re traveling through the downtown core this week, as crews inspect sewer lines.

For the safety of workers and the public, single-lane closures will be in place where crews are actively working.

The inspections will be taking place between 24th Street and 35th Street, from 25th Avenue to 48th Avenue. The work will be conducted between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. daily.

Every effort will be made to minimize disruptions, but minor delays should be expected.

The city appreciates everyone’s patience while this project is being completed.

NEW PIPE FOR TRONSON ROAD

The installation of a new sewer pipe along Tronson Road will require a road closure and detour for the next two months.

Starting Monday, March 7, Tronson Road will be closed to through traffic between Lakeshore Road and Okanagan Landing Road. Traffic will be detoured via Lakeshore Road. However, local traffic will still be able to access residences and businesses in the area.

For the safety of workers and public, please obey traffic control signage and directions from traffic control personnel. Every effort will be made to minimize disruptions but minor travel delays should be expected. The City appreciates everyone’s patience while this project is being completed.
