A section of the new West Kelowna Wine Route Phase II has just been paved, and it appears that West Kelowna has learned nothing from the mistakes on Phase I.
Phase 2 is so narrow that it is a safety hazard. It measures just 6.6 metres across the blacktop near Ogden Road, that's 10.5 feet per lane.
It will be impossible for emergency vehicles to get by during heavy traffic, and it is impossible for a pickup to do a three-point turn, making the new road comparable to Third World Mexican highways.
Wide-body RV trailers and semis are nine feet wide, plus mirrors, so there will be very little space between large vehicles as they pass one another, raising the risk of collisions.
It is unbelievable that council could have approved such an astounding waste of money – $8.75 million for a road that isn't even as wide as the residential street I live on.
The entire council should resign.
Ed White, West Kelowna
