The Casorso Active Transportation Corridor in Kelowna is now complete and open for use, providing another safe route for cyclists and pedestrians.
The project bridges the gap in the Ethel/Casorso Corridor, and creates protected bike routes from Downtown to Lower Mission and the Mission Creek Greenway.
“The completion of the Casorso Active Transportation Corridor is an important step in creating safer, more comfortable, routes throughout the city for people who bike, walk, or roll,” Mayor Tom Dyas said. “Kelowna is growing, and our transportation needs are evolving. Investing in active transportation allows us to encourage more sustainable trips to move around our city.
The construction of the corridor took place in phases, cumulating in the connection between K.L.O Road and Barrera Road which was completed in late November. The $4.4 million project was made possible thanks to a $500,000 grant from British Columbia Active Transportation Infrastructure and $2,190,400 from the Canada Community-Building Fund.
