The City of Nanaimo is seeking public feedback on proposed upgrades in the Country Club area.
The city said it plans to improve safety and access on Norwell Drive while the road is excavated for underground utility upgrades.
The city is also partnering with the Regional District of Nanaimo to upgrade the transit exchange.
A second round of community engagement is underway, with feedback accepted until April 17.
“We appreciate the feedback received so far and look forward to hearing from the community again. Replacing ageing sewer and water allows us to enhance the surface transit exchange and active transportation network at the same time. Public input will help us finalize a design that meets the needs of the Country Club area,” said general manager of engineering and public works Bill Sims.
Residents can view the concept plan for the project on Nanaimo’s website and can complete an online form to share their opinion.
Planning and design are expected to be completed this year, with construction anticipated to begin next year.
