The Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure is proposing to remove a 30 metre right of way along the existing Cosens Bay Road through Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park. The right of way would enable widening and upgrade of the road and would accommodate potential future utilities.

The "potential future utilities" would service private properties south of the park and could include a hydro line. Cosens Bay Road ends at the private properties; it is not a through road.

A Ministry roadway through the park would divide the park into two halves and have serious negative impacts on wildlife, grasslands and park user safety.
