To some it may feel like on every other road they travel lately they find workers in hardhats, wearing reflective vests and wielding shovels. Not to mention the gauntlet of orange traffic cones that accompany them.
Michelle Mahovlich, LangfordB次元官网网址檚 director of engineering, joked that it looks like the city is currently under construction, which compared to other areas isnB次元官网网址檛 a far stretch. She noted that unlike VictoriaB次元官网网址檚 core areas, Langford is still expanding and developing a lot of its major road networks.
B次元官网网址淲e are such a growing community,B次元官网网址 she said. B次元官网网址淲eB次元官网网址檙e still building.B次元官网网址
While normally summer months are busier for construction due to the drier weather, Mahovlich said there was no stoppage planned for the near future.
She hoped that residents wonB次元官网网址檛 mind a few traffic delays. B次元官网网址淗opefully, when they see it completed theyB次元官网网址檒l appreciate it.B次元官网网址
Some areas of construction to note include a pair of projects underway on McCallum Road. One will establish the missing link between a section near the Four Points by Sheraton Victoria Gateway Hotel and the Florence Lake neighbourhood.
The other involves making improvements to the existing road to increase the overall safety of the area.
A number of road improvements are going on around Belmont secondary, but these are in their finishing stages and should be done soon.
Work on a sewer line being installed on Goldstream Avenue between Jacklin and Spencer roads is due to be completed before the end of December.
Ongoing is the Leigh Road interchange Highway 1 southbound off-ramp project, a project that is tied in with the construction of a southbound acceleration lane from West Shore Parkway and the closure of the Goldstream Avenue highway exit. This work is scheduled to be completed by the end of the year.
