I actually heard this from the project team on Saturday that they've surpassed 50% guideway completion!

They should finish installing the columns in a few months. Probably have an ceremony then.

It's kinda buried unless it's not referring to the pic immediately above it.

Ok thanks, I had just read their first reply to you.

officedweller · #**548** Posted **Jul 28, 2026, 1:51 AM**

That reply could be to the first pic, so not sure.

Posts up on the social media accounts today announcing 50% guideway completion.
