I can never remember if this is where we've been talking about the Fountain St. Bridge reconstruction...!
Anyway, the South side is nearing completion, and since crews today were installing the railings, I'd say it's a safe bet they're planing on switching pedestrian/cycling traffic over soon to that side, and decommissioning the temporary wooden cantilevered structure on the North side.
It also looks like they might be getting ready to open access to the Walter Bean Trail here, too - which is great news, because the short segment that is closed right now makes it basically impossible to cycle down Blair Road, because you have to ride on-road for that stretch and it is horribly narrow and far too busy.
