I always thought that 5-way intersection at Parks and Mt Pleasant would be better as a roundabout, since we're on the subject.
Arrow Walk Road (Hawthorne Avenue Extension to Mount Pleasant Avenue): Asphalt Maintenance Resurfacing and Concrete Curb and Sidewalk Installation.

A new section of Harbour Passage is underway at Fallsview Avenue. This is the small circular street that looks out at Reversing Falls and the pulp mill. This should be finished up before or during early August.
I kind of forgot about this part, but it is good to see. The last time I drove down that way to park up and enjoy the view, the road and existing sidewalks (if you can even call them that) were in abysmal shape. A bus of tourists showed up, too. I wonder what they thought.
Sadly, between this section, the cove, and Market Place West, there will be several 'orphaned' sections of Harbour Passage by the end of the year. I appreciate that they are part of a larger plan, but they will be quite awkward in the meantime.
