Royal Ave & Abbott St Crosswalk

The Royal Ave & Abbott St crosswalk project is being delivered through the annual Crosswalk Program. It is part of the ongoing investments by the City to achieve the goals within the Transportation Master Plan (TMP), Official Community Plan (OCP), Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan (PBMP), and others. Making walking a safer, more comfortable, and viable way to travel through Kelowna supports long-term goals around protecting our environment, promoting inclusive transportation, and improving community health.

The project links the existing sidewalk network on Royal Ave to the Abbott ATC and Royal Ave Beach. It also provides a direct connection to Kelowna General Hospital. The final design will be primarily based on standards from the Transportation Association of Canada (TAC), BC Active Transportation Design Guide (BC ATDG), and Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and follow applicable City TMP, OCP, and PBMP policies.
