Jan 25, 2022 | 3:00 PM

Kelowna council has adopted its transportation master plan which has been in the works for four years.

The plan includes more than 100 recommended actions to improve all aspects of city transportation over the next 20 years.

“The long-term, city-wide plan for transportation improvements will help keep Kelowna moving, now and into the future,” said a statement from the city. “It recognizes that Kelowna is growing, our climate is changing, and our economy and transportation needs are evolving.”

The plan outlines what will be needed in six categories.

“It will help maintain and renew existing infrastructure, create fast and reliable transit, improve road connections, develop comfortable bicycle routes, create walkable neighbourhoods, and invest in education and emerging technologies that will help people use and enjoy new ways of getting around,” the city statement said.
