Took the truck this week as I had 'stuff' to pickup and for a better vantage point.
The Eastbound exit to Mississauga Road is paved, but does not look like its completed to a finish coat, and certain amounts of barrier wall have been installed etc. However the existing temporary wooden light standards still remain in the right of way of the ramp, very nicely paved around, so that ramps opening may be further off then one would suspect.
The third installment of the rebuilding Mississauga Bridge is essentially complete. However, you can see hoops of rebar still appearing through the cement of the initial pours of the deck over the road, so perhaps some further additional pours to the deck before paving.
Not much activity on the old Credit River bridge. It appears as if they have removed a substantial section of the decking where the western end of the bridge meets terra firma, but beyond that it is still difficult to see much.
Crews in sight were working on the Mississauga Road bridge, and east of the Credit River Bridge, where they are installing a large culvert through the previous QEW right of way. No crews appeared to be working on the bridge and the equipment looked undisturbed.
Sorry, no photos. Navigating the truck and the float through the zone is enough without trying to take photos on the fly.
One would think that some of this work would be pushing through so that some lane realignment could take place. Some of the current temporary lanes are tight, and with the curves and the very adjacent barriers, one good snowfall is going to present issues, especially east bound, where the lane changes are more pronounced.
