The Merritt Snowmobile Club has formally submitted a letter to the Province regarding the proposed decommissioning of sections of the KVR corridor affecting access toward Merritt.
The KVR is more than a former rail line. It provides safe, flat, multi use access for families, seniors, and riders of all skill levels. It connects staging areas to our trail systems and supports winter recreation that helps sustain local businesses throughout the off season.
We are deeply concerned about the lack of meaningful consultation with the communities and user groups most directly impacted. Once infrastructure is removed, access may be permanently lost.
We are calling for an immediate pause on further decommissioning activity near Merritt and the launch of a structured, transparent consultation process. Our club is ready to be part of a solution focused conversation that balances environmental responsibility, safety, and long term regional value.
This affects our members, our families, and our community.
If you care about maintaining safe public access to the KVR corridor, now is the time to speak up.
