CHILLIWACK – An orange construction sign mounted near Townsend Park several months ago told Chilliwack motorists that Wolfe Road would be repaired sometime this summer.

Roughly one month into summer, the road still hasn’t been fixed, following a public works project earlier this year turned the road into a bumpy ride in both directions of Wolfe Road.

Fraser Valley Today contacted the city’s communications department last week to see if the city will still have it rehabilitated this summer.

In their response, the city still hopes to see it fixed sometime this summer.

“The paving works on Wolfe and Schweyey Roads are tentatively scheduled for the middle of August,” the city told Fraser Valley Today. “We will get a definitive schedule as the contractor finalizes the underground works. The current contractor, Sandpiper Contracting, is responsible for the road restoration works.”

Road construction is happening throughout Chilliwack this summer, including the major Prest Road widening project and the Watson Road infrastructure project, along with a project near Fire Hall No. 4 on South Sumas Road.
