Final WL River Valley Bridge to be repaired

Joint Statement between BC Ministry of Environment, City of Williams Lake and Williams Lake First Nation:

Repair and restoration to the final bridge in the River Valley, damaged from the severe flooding in the spring, is slated for completion as early as September 25, 2020. With this bridge completed, the River Valley trail network will once again have uninterrupted access to the Fraser River. 

The City of Williams Lake Emergency Operations Center continues to monitor the situation surrounding the restoration of the River Valley trail network. 

At this time, the project is nearing the end of the emergency phase; however, there are still additional works to complete before the River Valley will be accessible for public use. 

Due to the possibility of changing conditions, and the works that are currently underway in the River Valley, the Emergency Operations Center would like to remind the public that access to the River Valley trail network is currently closed.
