By the time the snow gets piled it will completely inaccessible until the spring and then just a giant mud patch.
I really wish a pedestrian lens had been used more frequently for some of the finer details of this project.
This one really drove me nuts. The whole design of this intersection is just terrible, nowhere even remotely close to sufficient capacity for the number of pedestrians.
My only guess is the position of the pole is a gift from Grandlink to the region, because there is an intention to widen this crossing to make it a crossride. That being said, that still won't fix the awful awful design on the University side where everyone crammed onto a tiny sidewalk.
