Water St has a left turn restriction, Ontario St is one way, Victoria St has a turn restriction, and Gaukel St is now closed. With Francis St closed too you'd have to left turn at Frederick or Queen, which is quite a bit before Victoria St and likely to cause some confusion. Not insurmountable, but I think it's where traffic impacts are likely to come from.
This one is time based, although it covers basically the entire day. But I was never really on board with time based left turn restrictions. The sign details are too small and contain too much information that you can't parse it fast enough by the time it becomes readable, so people often ignore them. If the point is to prevent blocking traffic, why not have a "don't block traffic" sign, where you can take all the time you want to turn as long as no one is waiting behind you?
