The chief of the Okanagan Indian Band says they are still waiting for resolution on a section of the Okanagan Rail Trail that been off-limits to the public since the trail opened more than two years ago.
Seven kilometres in the Duck Lake area north of the Kelowna Airport is subject to a land ownership transfer involving the band, CN Rail and the federal government.
That means trail users have to end their trip at the airport if travelling north, or at McCarthy Road in Winfield if going south. There is presently no anticipated opening date for that section of trail.
