Thanks Josh_cat_eyes!

Here is the plan for the North Campus portion of UPEI. The roadway presently being put in place with the additional roadway connecting University Ave at Enman Cres. is just a part of this plan. If this all goes we should see a considerable amount of work in that area.

Other than where this new road connects with University Avenue, the road is nowhere near the alignment / location shown in their official plan. It’s such a joke...spend all this money on a vision and a plan, then not actually follow it.

You're right on that! If you look a the South Campus map, the new residence
doesn't even look the same to what they are building now. It's more like a guide and not a plan.

It’s pretty ugly. I’m not of fan of the metal siding, looks good in industrial parks on warehouses.

Edit to add: orange paint recently was put down to show the new lane markings, and how the lanes will curve around what will become a dedicated left, and a big time hazard.

They have removed the left hand turn arrow and have a no-left hand turn sign on the median pole. Looks like they must have had a lot of feedback on this idea. It was all the university's idea to have that left turn and use the inside lane. If there is going to be a left, the median barrier has to go. There isn't one at the Browns Ct intersection, why should there be one here. For now, the left is gone.

After losing a good portion of the structure to a strong wind a few weeks back, work continues, and with most of
the walls and roof up, it should be well closed in by Christmas.
