Sept 1
Lot more up on my site

Needs curb and road pave for the 3 bents for the westbound lanes

New west side of the westbound bridge, sidewalk and cycling lanes

Will require a full closure of the intersection for a weekend or two to finish curb work, final paving and turning the new traffic lights on

You can see how wide the Don is now at the Lake Shore and the Keating Channel

I see a lot of dumb people on the eastbound right-turn-only lane (to DVP) squeeze their way left to go straight at the very end. Infuriating. Maybe they need to paint the right turn arrow a lot earlier on the pavement instead of relying on "wordy" signs on poles.

That is standard for any road or Hwy where traffic is not moving in that left lane at any on/off ramps. Seen drivers go beyond the n\end of those lanes to cut in. Those drivers need a big fine and loose a few points.

Sneaking around again. Only one truck driving around on site this morning at the Lakeshore Blvd Bridge.

Forcing me to keep taking pictures at range. How dare. I might need to dig my good camera out of storage if this keeps up.

I'm guessing this deviation from the straight road is intention along the westbound side of Lakeshore Blvd East. Maybe they are reducing the size of the center median

And more of Lakeshore Blvd East, right near the don bridge.

They dug pretty deep. It is twice this depth in some places.

Great! I believe that there are treed medians along here.

The road edge is where the medium is going in and it needs to be wide for the trees in it. You can see the westbound curb for the medium in your photos as that is what I have in mind.

Unusually to see someone working the site on a Sunday as I rarely saw anyone.

Getting the southside path to the Don Roadway stills need a lot of work as well for the full length of the northside.

From your photos, they have started building the north retraining wall for the bridge sidewalk as it was ready when I shot the site. after the sidewalk was pour.

They are digging a trench across the westbound lanes on the west side of the bridge that wasn't there when I shot it.
