Classic journalism has been dead for a long time now! They just spew out words and hope that you will notice! Or maybe THEY don't even care to notice.

I’m waiting for someone to declare the rock slide was caused by climate change.

Definitely climate change. I think we need some sort of rock tax to make everything safe and effective for all Canadians weather or not they have real bo--- obs or not.

It's just a matter of days before they throw that out on the screen.

This area became a problem when they were upgrading the road and found that the cliff was unstable. The road was closed several weeks then and they had to bring fill in to stabilize the cliff. This pre-loading helped but did not solve the problem that we are now witnessing once again. This may become a fairly time consuming job to stabilize a cliff that has a fault within it. Pre-loading will probably not work this time and they will have to blast and remove the unstable portion of the cliff. Prepare for a long road closure!

The "crack" is over 3 meters wide and over 5 meters deep. That is not a crack- it`s a chasm. A normal drive to Kelowna from Summerland is roughly 40 minutes. Now it`s a 3 hour trip. There has also been 4 landslides south of Summerland in the last 2 months. Highway 97 is the only route through the Okanagan. One way in- one way out. As unstable as this area is now this will not be the last land/rockslide.

Those are trans rocks. The changed from rocks to big dangerous and very scary boulders that jumped out of a flintstones time warp.

It's the fault's fault that caused the fault to fault.

Must be CLIMATE ROCKS EH?🙃👀

24 hour news cycle gots to be filled somehow

cut a set back of 60000 tons of rock to stabilize the slope . many rock mines blast and process that amount in a day to a week depending on the size of the operation. there are a number of contractors that could do this repair quickly and keep the detour graded and water trucks for dust control. my large excavator a sk 850 can load a 1000 tons of rock an hour into trucks. so those contractors in bc can handle this in no time as this needs no studies just remove the crown of rock that is slipping down onto the highway. this is easy work for the professional excavation/blasting contractors in bc.😕

Yeah this is insane. Problem: rock Solution: move rock. Trucks blast equipment. Also... now I don’t know what’s down there but I see a cliff beside that cliff going down and off the road. Why don’t you just help the boulder sized boulders go where they want to go?

You make too much sense, BC doesn't operate that way. They'll do it with shovels and pick axes dragging it out for as long as it can be milked.😂

Wow! Rock slides in the mountains! Who knew?

they could copy the Sea to Sky highway, and install a heavy steel grid that holds the rocks in. that's what worked in the past.

Wow hard to believe they ran that clip without once mentioning climate change

The Okanagan authorities never learn, this is the only N to S road for 1000's of commuters and not been safely constructed.

Come on Mother Nature, give BC a break already. We've been through enough this year!

Look at that highway. Moving rocks is how they built this highway. They are presenting this as a barely unattainable challenge, when in reality, you can probably get it done in less than a week

An exciting time to live in the Okanagan

Guess they never fixed the problem 12yrs ago. When they were working on widening the rd.

Hwy 4 had a major slide, but it was caused by a fire which destabilized the soil.

This area was problems long time is because they go on cheap built road pure simple.they should cut more 100 feet inside and rock bolt and install top hill monitor pure simple.i live se bc for 8 years and when show up expo86 was already a problems.the logging road should be upgrade but is bc right you figure😊

The old political bunch made sure for 100 years the money was spent on roads in Vancouver and Victoria. Same with education.

Imagine a defamation lawsuit over a poop emoji.

The mountains are clearly too dangerous and should be flattened out

Improve the back roads and repair 97

no big deal get a loader and push it over the other side

Perhaps you missed the part of the video @:45 showing the huge crack running along the top of the slope about 20 feet back from the edge? They're going to have to remove that rock until they get to solid mountain before they can let the public back to drive on it.

Just in time for the fires..lol

I suppose this will be blamed on climate change 😂

I never understood the Coq. build when most of our Arch. are from Europe where they drill tunnels and chunnels all day long. The weather alone on the Coq. has me taking the Fraser. A route from Hope to Summerland made more sense to moi, and almost all the land is provincial forest or federal anyway: come out the back way of Summerland and then improve going north. Instead, even the cut to/from the Ok. is weather sensitive and isolated.
