Temporary limited access next week for two Central Okanagan parks

Access to a pair of popular regional district parks in the Central Okanagan will be briefly limited next week.

In West Kelowna, one of the four entrances to Kalamoir Regional Park will be closed for one day as crews repair a fence and a retaining wall.

The Casa Loma entrance at Benedick Road will be closed on Tuesday, April 9. However, the park’s three remaining entrances (Collens Hill Road, Sunnyside Road and King Road) will remain open.

The Durnin Road entrance will be closed from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m., with the Leckie Road entrance being closed from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Signage and barricades will be in place during closures, and visitors are asked to respect construction signs and directions.
