Engagement Summary
The Highway 17 Keating Cross Road “Flyover” Overpass Project will improve traffic safety, efficiency, and help keep local businesses competitive with improved access.

- Widening of Keating Cross Road to support additional traffic
- Installation of a new sidewalk on Keating Cross Road to boost safety for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians
- Installation of bus-on-shoulder facilities that support future plans for bus rapid transit on the Pat Bay Highway
- Realignment of the southbound on-ramp to Victoria
- Closure of the Highway 17 access at:
- East Saanich Road
- Martindale Road
