City of West Kelowna crews have expanded watermain flushing to a small section of the former Sunnyside/Pritchard Water System. 

An isolated, precautionary water quality advisory is in effect until further notice. During flushing, customers may experience reduced water pressure and/or discoloration when crews are working at a nearby hydrant.

Watermain flushing will occur 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to Friday and the schedule is subject to change due to weather and other factors.

The city is providing residents with an alternative free source of drinking water at the bulk filling station at Shannon Lake and Asquith Roads. There may be possible traffic pattern changes and detours due to the Shannon Lake Active Transportation Corridor project.
