I saw what looked to be utility relocation in front of Burger King a few weeks ago.

Yeah, they're doing a bunch of work on both the exit there from 7/85 onto Bruce, and at Bruce/the exit itself. It's been ongoing for a few weeks now. The terraforming on the South part of the curve is getting pretty hot and heavy.

Agreed, multiple projects in the works when I drove through today.

Worthy of a new topic or is this covered elsewhere? I think it's probably easiest to keep Bruce St as part of this thread. It's all one giant construction project together. Makes posting pictures simpler.

The curbs are all in on Wellington / Shirley Ave extension, but I noticed there were no "cut outs" for where I thought the roadway went down to Victoria St. Will they pay to rip out the new curbs in a few years, or do I read the drawing wrong?

Well, here's the drawing again, for reference.
So this was directly opposite the Eastern Wellington ramp?

Weird.
When they build out new subdivisions, they have curbs that round out into the an empty field all the time.

So are they doing a bridge replacement for Frederick St. as well?

I don't think Fredrick St Bridge is being replaced, they just did some work on that bridge, no?

It was basically a band-aid fix (new pavement, concrete patching, temporary jersey barriers along parapet walls) without doing a full rehabilitation knowing that the bridge would be removed in the coming years.

Which goes first, Frederick or Victoria? Because I know there is no way both will be closed at the same time.
Victoria first, next year. A lengthened span at Victoria is necessary to accommodate the new ramps, underpasses, etc. The Frederick replacement is only to lengthen the Bruce exit ramp lane.
