A planning process is underway to explore options for reconnecting Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc lands and Kamloops after the Red Bridge, a vital connection between these communities, was destroyed by a fire in 2024.
The process is being led by the Ministry of Transportation and Transit, in partnership with Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc and the City of Kamloops. It includes a conceptual design for a modern replacement bridge on the original alignment, and will also assess other transportation solutions, review traffic and site data, and evaluate how potential options could affect adjacent infrastructure.
The ministry, Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc and the City of Kamloops remain committed to advancing the planning process as quickly as possible, with the shared goal of reconnecting these communities in a way that aligns with provincial requirements and positions the project for future funding opportunities.
