#Ottawa #Osgoode Link Pathway #bike path #construction update for today. The contractor keeps digging things up at Leitrim Road and then putting it back together, but the pathway remains closed there. They are supposed to be putting in bike crossing traffic signals, but it has not been complete in many months now.

Here is my Monday update on the #construction work on the #Osgoode Link Pathway. They finally got the northern-most 2 km section completed and we were able to at least bike that far this morning. It looks like next they will be installing the bike crossing lights at the road intersection, as the ground detectors have already been wired in. That means that we will just have to pull up on our bikes and the lights will flash for crossing, I think.

The pathway is still blocked 2 km further south, waiting for the ground work to be finished on the crossing lights there.

Some shots of #construction on the #Osgoode Link Pathway in south #Ottawa. This #bike path seems to be taking a very long time to get finished and is already 27 months late to be completed. The portions that are completed look good, with a well-rolled stone dust surface. Just need to get it finished.

It seems that there is more ditch work yet to be completed on the #Osgoode Link Pathway. Using heavy equipment they have managed to re-profile 400 m of ditches so far. Hopefully the final pathway finish of stone dust will be here soon.

...and here is our mid-week #bike path #construction update. Work has actually started, but from the south end, proceeding north. We biked down to check out the progress and found that the very south connection to the #Osgoode Link Pathway has been finished with its stone dust surface. They seem to be working north from there, so more photos as it gets completed.
