• 1.2 km extension offers a seamless pathway along our scenic stretch of Okanagan Lake
• 3 metre wide path provides smooth, continuous multi-use pathway surface
• 1.5-2 metre green belt “bioswale”, also known as a “rain garden” consists of native, low water use plants and offers a pleasant and safe border and works to protect the lake from road runoff pollutants
• Bioswale also reduces costs to build storm water drainage systems and is a more environmentally sustainable system for protecting lake water quality
• Traffic calming and stencilled bike markings help guide all users sharing the road
• Improved access to the beach, including a new wheelchair-accessible picnic table
• New sidewalks and newly paved Beach Avenue makes for easier and safer travel
• Energy-efficient path lights, including new LED lit benches for safety – a first in Canada
• Safer pedestrian-activated crosswalk lights with coloured and textured crossing surface
• New benches and waste and recycling containers made from recycled materials
• More opportunities for families to “gift” a bench in dedication of a loved one
• Sandbox and family area added at Strachan’s corner, between 8th and 11th Streets
• Approximately 80 percent of the materials from the demolition of the old road and sidewalks is being recycled and reused for this project and others in the future
• Funding for two-thirds of the project generously provided by provincial and federal government
• One-third funding provided by reserve funds from the development community.
