Took some photos on a walk yesterday! Glad the sunny weather lets me do this again.
Duke from Water to Victoria and Francis from Duke to the Kaufman Lofts entrance is ready to be paved! Would be very surprised if this didn't happen today (especially with the rapid way curbs installed), should definitely alleviate some traffic. Last night when I was walking by, there was a steam roller doing a coarse tamping, and a rammer doing more of a fine tamping behind him.
King is completely torn up now between Francis and Victoria. Work hadn't much started on Victoria yee, apart from a small hole. As a side note, I'm quite disappointed in the pedestrian access with the new Victoria closure. Want to get from Charles to Duke by foot? You have to walk from the tannery, to One Vic, all the way down to the Beer Store, all the way BACK UP to One Vic, and then along Victoria. It's ridiculous.
Dirt was also being compacted at Francis and Charles last night. Embedded track is completed up to the Tannery entrance. Charles hasn't been paved yet - and it might be today - but apparently this intersection actually opened last night! Charles should soon be a fully drivable street.
