“We are extremely pleased to announce that the road is now open and available for use” says WFN Chief Robert Louie. “Nancee Way provides an important addition to the local road network of Westbank First Nation lands at IR 10, servicing the area and providing an alternate emergency access to the Okanagan Lake Shopping Centre as well as potential future developments on both sides of Highway 97”.

Nancee Way provides an alternative access from Westside Road across Highway 97 and was completed as part of the $41 million Westside Road Interchange project.
