Highway 20 at Hodgson and Dog Creek Road Work to Begin Again in June

Williams Lake residents are being made aware that a long-term road project will be worked on through the summer.

The Ministry of Transportation and Transit (MOTT) says road crews will start work on the Highway 20 at Hodgson Road and Dog Creek Road project in June.

Road work is scheduled at the Highway 20 – South Lakeside Drive intersection to go on for about two months.

The Ministry says the road work is a continuation of the upgrades started in 2023 and last winter, on the surface water drainage infrastructure on the ancient Hodgson Slide.

Roadside ditch imporvments, culvert installations, grass seeding, and paving will take place in the ‘Upper Project Area’. That area consists of Richard Road, Bann Road, Opal Street, Shaw Road, and Roberts Drive.

Ditch improvements and culvert installations will also be done in the Wotzke Drive and Terra Ridge area.

Highway 20 is reported to be safe for motorists to travel along as the road work is ongoing.

Drivers are advised to check DriveBC for updates on traffic impacts and potential slowdowns as the road work is ongoing.
