Noticed street lights have been added to the top of the catpoles along Charles, from Gaukel to Queen (maybe to Benton). The wires along the old wooden hydro poles have also been reduced to one lone one at the top. I'm not sure if that last one is significant in some way, but hopefully it'll come down soon, so these poles can be brought down and the area be freed from visual clutter! 
Also, traffic lights have been activated at Water / Charles. Still nothing at Francis or Gaukel yet, for whatever reason.
ALSO also, there was a sign restricting left turns from Charles WB onto Benton SB - was this always there? I understand the reasoning, because of lane limitations, but still... the amount of restricted left turns being added downtown is going to make traffic a lot more hectic than already was, with drivers sure to ignore them.
