General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

[danbrotherston]

Amazing to see in the context of today (pandemic days) that the city designers choose to allocate space to a turning lane instead of a sidewalk.  Sidewalk at Charles has to be less than a metre between poles and building.  

Also the paving machines destroyed the decorative cross walk, which were new last year?  Hopefully the contractor is held accountable to fix that.

To be fair, city planners/transportation engineers haven't looked at this since around 2017...plans for this reconstruction have been in the works for 5 years, it was supposed to have been paved last year or even the year before.
