Winter weather is tough on roadways, and Ocean Boulevard in Colwood takes an extra beating with storm surges sending salt water up onto the road and parking areas.

The Colwood Public Works team is preparing to grade and level the parking areas along the beach on Ocean Boulevard to improve accessibility for visitors and address drainage issues.

Work is scheduled for March 31 through April 1st.

If you are visiting the beach on these days, expect some parking areas to be blocked off for this important work.

Please use extra caution, follow the directions of traffic control personnel and obey all signs.

Your patience is appreciated.

If you have questions, please feel free to reach out to the Colwood Roads Team at 250-474-4133
