Highway 7 - Kitchener to Guelph

[sevenman]

I just drove the expressway northbound and I saw that the southbound express lanes were closed with traffic backed up almost to University Ave.  My best guess is that they're taking down the scaffolding and form work over the southbound express lanes, as they've already done in the northbound collectors.  I would have thought they'd do that in the middle of the night, not in the middle of a Friday...

  I drive that stretch between 1am and 3am.  This week they had north and southbound lanes closed but were not removing any of the support steel below the Victoria St. bridge.  They were actually doing repairs on the railway bridge.  Some evenings they'd have the express lanes closed other evenings they have the collector lane closed.

  Lots of activity on my drive overnight with a lot of heavy machinery present.  Looked like almost all of the support steel was removed under the span between the northbound expressway and the eastern-most bridge abutment where the new temporary northbound on-ramp from Bruce St. will pass.
