Winter Roads Maintenance
- To make a service request for a City of West Kelowna street, contact our roads contractor AEL at 1-866-353-3136. Service excludes Highways 97 and 97C, Westside Road and William R. Bennett Bridge.
- For maintenance of Highways 97 and 97C and Westside Road, and streets in Westbank First Nation and the Central Okanagan West Electoral Area, call AIM Roads at 1-866-222-4204.
- For maintenance of William R Bennett Bridge (40 meters north of the Abbott Street intersection and 187 meters south of the bridge), contact Protrans at 1-888-769-2925.
- Please help out our road crews by remembering to park off-street when it snows and up to 48 hours after it stops snowing to ensure plows can clear your street efficiently and safely. Thank you. Please don't shovel snow back onto the road. Please also be a good neighbour and clear the sidewalks around your home. When clearing your driveway, please shovel snow to the left as you face your home so plows leave a smaller windrow along driveway frontages.
- Roads are cleared on a priority basis. For more information, including an interactive map of our winter maintenance roads priorities, please go to westkelownacity.ca/snow.
Transit
- Buses will be on a Sunday schedule on Feb. 17, 2025.
