Great photo!

Good news from the latest Ion update! Corduroy road numero deux has already completed its investigation by the Ministry, and can now be excavated. That was fast!

The 2-way section of Erb has been approved, and will be implemented when the intersection of Caroline / Erb shuts down. Erb between Westmount and Caroline will be restricted down to one lane each direction, to limit traffic.

Track work, as well as the pouring of sidewalks, starts on Allen beginning Monday

The wooden light poles we've seen in uptown ARE temporary, just in case that was never confirmed.

Duke closes at the railway tracks in a few weeks, for 1 week. They're starting a shuttle service for pedestrians to navigate this >1km long detour, thank god. The shuttle will run every 30 minutes from 6am to 6pm

Queen / Charles getting paved in early June, underground work is now complete here, apart from recommissioning everything.

Track work is NOT being done at Duke / Water during this closure (not surprised), but underground work is now complete.

Charles / Cameron closing on Tuesday for a month. Tracks being laid, I'm assuming? Haven't been down there in a while.

Borden / Charles currently getting curbs, to be paved in a few weeks.

Borden itself, being the first road to get tracks, is undergoing finishing touches, including landscaping? Is sod being laid here, has anyone seen?

Huge update today! Thanks, warm weather!
