I heard rumours the city has or had designs on expropriating part of that block in order to rejoin the northbound and southbound lanes on Donald. Anyone know if there's truth to that?

In the long term plans years ago for some kind of interchange, I imagine with Pembina/Donald running under Osborne. I imagine it's long gone from City road planning.

I think it was the opposite plan, Osborne under. Either way I think in the "short term" time frame of winnipeg road constructions timelines, there is supposed to be a study to determine what the rehab of the Osborne underpass might be. Which potentially could look at the whole confusion corner thing but that's just me guessing at this point. I don't think the city actually has any plan except for future widening setback requirements of Osborne.

Steel girders and sewer pipes being delivered at 51 Roslyn Road this morning. Also saw cages being delivered for water and sewer installation. The project is definitely moving into construction this summer.

good to see some action on these new developments! all I'm hoping for now is some of those CRU's to get filled up on Osborne

Looks like a good development, huge improvement over what's there now. would be nice if they demolished the E-Mart too and put in a CRU on that corner since it's zoned C1
