A major Okanagan Wine Route will be closed for the summer season.

Boucherie Road in West Kelowna will be closed for construction, between Hayman and Stuart roads from July 3 until October.

The section of road will be open to local traffic and visitors only, while the road is being upgraded. 

Detours will be established via Hudson Road or along a route comprised of Boucherie Road, Hayman Road, Tomat Avenue, Michelle Crescent, Essen Road, Bridgeview Road and Thacker Drive.

Access to the Esso, Mac’s convenience store, Subway, and Friends Pub will be maintained via Boucherie Road and access to Rollingdale Winery will be maintained via Hayman Road.

Customers wanting to access other local wineries are advised to use the Hudson Road detour and then continue along Boucherie and other local streets.

The District of West Kelowna would like to thank the public for their patience during construction season.

Boucherie Road is being upgraded to the District of West Kelowna’s new Wine Route Standard.

Sewers, water works, drainage upgrades, sidewalks, cycling lanes, retaining walls and landscaped medians are being constructed as part of the $3.6 million project.

For more information, go to districtofwestkelowna.ca and select In the Works and choose the Boucherie Road Wine Route Upgrade link.
