When I drove to Kelowna about a month ago I think that the construction signs said completion in 2012, which they better get a move on this spring if they want to complete the work within two construction seasons. Of course many of BC's highway project signs seem to be wishful thinking at best. I hope the 4 laning continues north of Armstrong to Enderby within the next 10 years, as highway traffic seems to be growing rapidly.
