Hello to the beautiful community of Hope, British Columbia, and the surrounding areas.
British Columbia Stabilization and Geo-Rope are scheduled to resume work on the Odlum Bluff Stabilization Project on Saturday, July 25, 2026. Phase 4 is expected to continue until approximately August 12, 2026, with the possibility of completing the work earlier.
To support local events and reduce disruption to the community, the Ministry of Transportation and Transit has directed that there will be no traffic interruptions on July 25, August 1, or August 2. Work will continue on the remaining days, including Sundays.
Please be advised that helicopter operations are scheduled for Tuesday, July 28, and Friday, July 31, beginning at approximately 6:00 a.m. During these operations, mesh will be flown into place and the highway will require full closures of up to 20 minutes at a time. We appreciate the patience and understanding of local residents, commuters, and businesses during these early-morning operations.
Phase 4 will include completing the remaining rock bolts, installing the mesh on the new attenuator mesh system, finishing the required site work, and demobilizing our crews and equipment.
British Columbia Stabilization and Geo-Rope are proud to be part of this important project and to help make this section of highway safer for local residents, visitors, and their families.
Please follow all posted speed limits and the directions of the traffic-control team while travelling through the work zone.
Thank you, Hope, for your continued patience and support. Please share this notice with anyone who may be travelling through the area, and follow us for future project updates.
