Shop local, eat local, enjoy local Hey North Shore – it’s time to show your colours! The Overlanders Bridge upgrade, scheduled to get underway in April, will give North Shore residents an opportunity to shop local. The project will include repairs and resurfacing of the bridge deck, as well as reconstruction of the west side pedestrian sidewalk and resurfacing of the north and south roadway approaches. While the City of Kamloops has assured that there will always be one lane in each direction open, North Shore residents could lessen potential congestion on the bridge by shopping right in their own neighbourhood.

To further reduce the potential for congestion on the bridge, commuters may want to consider other modes of transportation including transit, carpooling, cycling or walking. Or how about rollerblading? The City will be implementing a communication plan to inform the public of anticipated delays and lane closures utilizing road signage, print and radio ads as well as social media. Just remember to have a little bit of patience during the construction period and obey any instructions from flag people. Jack Bell
