Husband Road to Kalamalka Road remains closed. This project consists of removing existing imported material (the road surface) and replacing it with imported material. Husband Road is within an identified archaeological zone requiring a Site Alteration Permit to continue work.
The Provincial Archeology Branch has agreed to expedite the issuance of the permit; however, we do not have an update on when we can expect the permit. The Branch is permitting the District to apply dust abatement and the dust conditions will be monitored and addresses as the need arises. The District is working with the School District to manage bussing routes in the event Husband Road remains closed into September. If a bus route is affected, families will be notified by School District 22. The District will continue to provide a weekly update unless additional information becomes available sooner.
In the meantime, the beach parking lot remains open. Please use Middleton Way to Husband Road to access lot via Highway 6. The District thanks you for your continued patience.
