According to the City, the small slope failure occurred in January within the black slope of a small drainage pond at 780 Clifton Rd.
“Crews will be filling in a drainage pond and re-routing storm water to the main drain along Clifton Road to stabilize the slope,” explained a City of Kelowna release.
Provisions for the lost storm detention will be made up elsewhere in the system with future improvements.
Work is estimated to finish up in May.
Two-way traffic will be maintained throughout the process, with a 30 km/h speed limit in place.
