FAQs

Is the project still on schedule?

Yes. While construction is entering into a rainy spring season and has faced some weather delays, overall, the project is still on schedule for end of year completion.

My customers are having a hard time finding my business. What type of signage can businesses have during this time?

To assist businesses promoting their operations, there is a temporary suspension of the sign ordinance enforcement for businesses within the construction area. This allows businesses to use signage such as A-frames, flags and banners. While enforcement is suspended during this construction period, placement of signs should not unnecessarily block sidewalks or interfere with traffic on the street or in the construction areas.
