Union Rd & West of Millard Pl Crosswalk Improvements

The Union Rd & West of Millard Pl 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 add pedestrian-activated flashers to the existing crossing, which serves pedestrians accessing North Glenmore Elementary along with Brandt's Creek Linear Park users. This safety improvement was a recommendation from the 2022 Safe Routes for Schools project performed at North Glenmore Elementary. 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 bylaws and TMP, OCP, and PBMP policies.
