The dismantling of a tower crane in Kelowna will temporarily disrupt traffic along a downtown street for three days.
The crane was used to help build a 20-storey condominium tower at the corner of Ellis Street and Lawrence Avenue.
Construction on the tower began in early 2018 and is expected to be complete next year.
Last month, the final layer of cement was poured, with construction now focusing on the tower’s interior.
With the crane’s dismantling, two roads will be impacted during the tear down and removal.

Businesses in the area will remain open during the road closures, with parking available on nearby downtown streets and within the Chapman Parkade on Lawrence Avenue.
