Othello Tunnels to partially reopen this summer

Othello Tunnels to partially reopen this summer

Global News
Wednesday, March 27, 2024 6:59 PM GMT

Closed for the last three years, construction work will soon start to repair infrastructure damage from heavy rain and flooding in November 2021.

A popular B.C. park known for its former train tunnels that people can walk through will partially reopen this summer after a three-year closure.

The province says Coquihalla Canyon Park, commonly called the Othello Tunnels, will undergo construction this spring to repair infrastructure damaged by heavy rain and flooding in November 2021.

In all, more than 30 sites throughout the park were damaged, as well as all five of the historic train tunnels, which were built in 1914 and were an engineering feat.

Located near Hope, the tunnels were once part of the historic Kettle Valley Railway.

“Coquihalla Canyon Park and Othello Tunnels are extremely popular, and their spectacular beauty and unique features provide good reason,” said B.C.’s environment minister, George Heyman.

“We know people have been waiting a long time for the park to safely open. The damage to this park from the atmospheric river was extensive, and we are designing and rebuilding more resilient infrastructure so it can better withstand the impacts of climate change.”

The province says restoration work will begin in two phases, with the park slated to partially reopen in early July.

The first phase will focus on restoring facilities and access from the park entrance and parking lot to the end of the second tunnel.
