The ministry will be reopening a second lane to traffic on the Malahat to accommodate summer traffic and the significantly higher volumes that are expected due to long weekend travellers and concert goers attending the Sunfest Country Music Festival in the Cowichan Valley. 

All travellers – including drivers, pedestrians and cyclists – are advised that McKenzie Avenue will be closed while construction crews pour the new concrete deck for the Galloping Goose Trail bridge as part of the McKenzie Interchange Project.

Travellers are advised that crews are repaving approximately four kilometres of the Pat Bay Highway (Highway 17) in both directions between Vanalman Avenue and Haliburton Road.

Delays of approximately 30 minutes are to be expected during the busy summer season while safety improvements are constructed through the Malahat Village, and the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure encourages drivers to allow for extra travel time.

Drivers are advised that Highway 1 will be closed overnight between McKenzie Avenue/Admirals Road and Six Mile Road to ensure the safety of drivers and construction crews while the old pedestrian-cyclist bridge is removed.

All travellers, including drivers, pedestrians and cyclists, are reminded that McKenzie Avenue will be closed while construction crews install the new Galloping Goose Trail bridge as part of the McKenzie interchange project.

The Trans-Canada Highway west of Revelstoke is currently closed in both directions, after debris blocked a channel on Camp Creek sending water and other material flowing over the highway.
