From the City of Williams Lake:
The City of Williams Lake would like to advise the general public that starting October 4th through to October 22nd, 2010, the City will be doing Traffic Light and sidewalk upgrades that will disrupt traffic flow at the intersection of 2nd Avenue and Oliver Street.
“The Traffic Lights at 2nd Avenue and Oliver Street have been identified as exceeding their life expectancy. This traffic light upgrade will provide improved traffic flow and assist the City in reducing its carbon footprint through new technology,” states Councilor Sue Zacharias. "The voice walk indicator system and improved sidewalk ramps support the City's accessibility initiative.”
If possible, please avoid the 2nd Avenue and Oliver Street intersection completely. If unable to avoid the construction site, please use extra caution.
To minimize traffic disruption, the existing traffic lights will be operational during the upgrade and the new system will be operational on October 8th, 2010.
The City will commence replacement of the removed concrete sidewalk on October 11th. This construction is anticipated to be completed by October 22nd, 2010.
The City of Williams Lake thanks the public for their patience and cooperation while this project is underway.
