Major changes for Coldstream road

The District of Coldstream hopes to move forward with a major realignment of Kidston Road next year, in order to make it safer for cyclists and other traffic.

Chief Administrative Officer Trevor Seibel says the project looks to shift the road to the west and closer to the lake, right by the red gate at Kal Lake Provincial Park.

The district had to win BC Parks approval before detailed design work began.

“The plan is to construct a proper parking area in order to make it safer for the park users and the traffic on the road,” explains Seibel. “BC Parks approval was needed as we plan to use approximately 430 square meters inside the park for the parking lot.”
