The roundabout at Gellatly and Carrington Roads will open to drivers later this week as construction draws to a close.

The intersection is set to re-open permanently on Thursday (July 29) at around 6 p.m., the City of West Kelowna announced in a statement.

Final landscaping work will continue in the next few weeks but will have minimal traffic impact.

The $1.32 million roundabout project also included a three-metre-wide, paved multi-use path between Witt and Boucherie Roads, which is scheduled to be finished in September.

“This path will create a key connection between Westbank Centre and the waterfront, and includes minor in-stream storm work improvements to Smith Creek,” the city said.
