RE: Trails - Canard - 06-29-2018 The Forwell Trail is closed just South of Lexington, by the tunnel: Joking aside, I'm glad they're fixing up this small section, which has been awful for years. RE: Trails - danbrotherston - 06-29-2018 I use that daily, I hope it is reopened soon. RE: Trails - Canard - 06-29-2018 My post was kind of tongue-in-cheek. It's not really closed. If you can believe it, I broke the rules and went past. It's a 2m section of the trail they're fixing (that really bad concrete section when you pop out of the tunnel). I guess legally they have to sign it as "closed". RE: Trails - Canard - 06-30-2018 Iron Horse Trail
Central Promenade Reconstruction

If it drags into the winter, that'll be a mess. RE: Trails - plam - 06-30-2018 (06-30-2018, 01:02 PM)Canard Wrote: Central Promenade ReconstructionI tried to leave the Central Promenade for Caroline/Erb yesterday and after biking for a while on the nice new promenade ashphalt, at the intersection, there was a fence and a "keep off the grass" sign. Not sure how that's supposed to work. RE: Trails - Canard - 06-30-2018 Right, I saw that too! I was by about...4pm? And it was fully blocked, which I thought was unfair considering they did NOT block the access at the North end - so if someone came down they'd get trapped, just as you were. A few hours later, however (6pm?), John tweeted that it was possible to pass. I checked this morning on my ride and they had altered the fence to allow passage there.

It has been closed since the LRT rapidway construction began. RE: Trails - Canard - 07-04-2018 Great news for the Central Promenade! https://twitter.com/uu_john/status/1014520826660454400?s=21 These can’t come soon enough. While the trail was temporarily open over the weekend, it was a disaster with people wandering everywhere aimlessly. RE: Trails - Markster - 07-05-2018 Update on the Bridgeport-LaurelTrail-Peppler crossing: Quote:To: Concerned Parties RE: Trails - danbrotherston - 07-05-2018 (07-05-2018, 10:19 AM)Markster Wrote: Update on the Bridgeport-LaurelTrail-Peppler crossing: Does anyone know what the discussion at that meeting was? Are they considering having two crossings, or are they simply reconsidering moving it? RE: Trails - Markster - 07-06-2018 The meeting was postponed, so there was no discussion. The report that was widely derided suggesting removal of the Peppler crossing was sent back to staff. Details are scant. Basically all we know is what's in that communication I quoted. We don't know what staff have been directed to do. Are they going to consider both crossings now? Are they going to entrench on moving the crossing? We don't know. RE: Trails - KevinL - 07-08-2018 I had thought these signs to be long gone, but imagine my surprise when I found one at Vanier and Traynor today. They date back to the 80s, or perhaps late 70s. Check out that penny-farthing! RE: Trails - Pheidippides - 07-08-2018 Great find! Nothing says welcome to our modern community full of great cycling infrastructure than a Penny Farthing on a 30 year old sign shrouded in shrubbery. There was another one where the Filsinger trail crossed Patricia up until about 2013, but seems to have disappeared before 2014. |
