Frost Rd & Gordon Dr Crosswalk Improvements

Home > Our community > Planning & projects > Current capital projects > Frost Rd & Gordon Dr Crosswalk Improvements

The Frost Rd & Gordon Dr crosswalk improvement 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 will modify the existing crossing in preparation for the opening of South Perimeter Rd and serves as a key connection to Canyon Falls Middle School. Pedestrian-activated flashers will be added, and the northbound left turn bay will be re-implemented to facilitate anticipated traffic growth on Gordon Dr. In the future, this intersection is tentatively planned to become fully signalized. The final designs 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 and bylaws.
