Apparently we have forgotten about 2 years of LRT construction already.
No, I haven’t forgotten. The roads were closed more or less to the extent they needed to be in order to accomplish the work, and were re-opened reasonably promptly once the relevant work was done.
Here we have a path closed before the long-term replacement is in place, when there is no apparent reason why the replacement couldn’t have been constructed first.
Ignoring that the permanent re-routing probably wouldn’t have been entertained for a motor route in the first place.
We have also seen this with the LRT construction, where, for example, the Laurel Trail next to the Perimeter Institute is still not restored, even though there has not been LRT construction there since the fall. They could easily have made an effort to ensure the trail was restored before winter but did not do so.
