City of Vernon crews will begin an asphalt surface repair on Kal Lake Road Wednesday, Oct. 30, at 7 p.m. The work will mean traffic changes.

End-of-season road upgrades continue in Vernon.

The latest is causing considerable congestion on Highway 6 this morning.

Motorists travelling along Kalamalka Lake Road this week may experience minor travel delays, while crews perform asphalt surface repairs.

Starting as early as 7 a.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 30, Kalamalka Lake Road will be reduced to two lane traffic between 14th Avenue and Highway 6.

Work may also require temporary closures on Pottery Road between Kalamalka Lake Road and Highway 6.

"Local traffic will still be able to access businesses and residences in the area," said the city. "Work is expected to take one week to complete, weather dependent."

Some delays should be expected for motorists in the area, however, every effort will be made to minimize disruptions. For the safety of workers and public, obey traffic control signage and slow down in the area.
