The City of Kamloops has contracted BA Dawson Blacktop Ltd. to upgrade the sanitary sewer main on 4th Avenue between Lansdowne Street and Battle Street. The project will serve to increase sewer capacity for future building infrastructure and provide utility servicing for the new Kamloops Centre for the Arts facility.

We are advising businesses, residents, and commuters that brickwork as part of the 4th Avenue Sewer Upgrades work will occur from mid-May to late June 2026.
