Highway 97 through the Kelowna B.C. area is not providing enough traffic flow to put up with current demands of traffic and future traffic based on population growth.   

We need a second bridge or an expansion of Westside Rd or another route to by-pass Kelowna to alleviate the traffic congestion in the Kelowna, and or Central Okanagan Area.    

The population growth in the Central Okanagan area coupled with Tourism makes working and living in the area difficult due to constant traffic jams and endless idling while traveling 4km/h just to cross the three lane bridge.  Its a bottleneck and needs to be solved and should already have been solved.  

THis is a provincial matter and the highways department and the provincial government need to address this right away and waiting will only cause more problems.
