Fibre Optic Construction to Begin

The Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD) is scheduled to begin installing fibre optic cables.

Construction and survey work will be happening from December 13, 2023 – February 10, 2024. During this period, there will be minor traffic disruptions along Headquarters Road, Old Island Highway to the Fifth Street Bridge, and Puntledge Road. There will also be minor disruptions along Anderton Avenue, 8th Avenue, and Cumberland Road, however these disruptions should only last one to two days towards the end of the project.

The red noted area will have more disruptions involving the horizontal drilling crew.
The yellow highlighted area will be less disruptive as existing fibre ducting is being used.

The members of the regional district work collaboratively on providing sustainable services for the benefit of the diverse urban and rural areas of the Comox Valley.
