Nice update! I did my bi-weekly ride of the line on my bike yesterday (it's a good long route for someone who doesn't have a car to drive out to nature with lol) and didn't even bother taking photos or anything, because like you say, there's not a lot happening. There's some landscaping/finishing work happening in Mill Woods, which is very close to completion, as you say. (the one thing i would love to know more about is the giant hole at the intersection of 38th and 66th. it's been there for months, giant crane, work happening, but no info or anything posted on the fences) Other than that, the Davies Parking lot is almost done. everything else is sitting there, 85% complete. I think you saw all there is to see from the car lolDrove by the construction, south of Davies station yesterday, for the second day in a week. ...
I'll probably walk downtown later this week and will try to update, with pictures, on the progress, but I was there over the weekend and it looks fairly close to completion, at least from inside the car.
The only new element i found appearing was the SUP on the West side of 66/75, though it's still not really useable. south of the Whitemud it's just getting started, north of it it's mostly there.
also, sidenote. very VERY iffy gossip. I heard from one of the artists doing work for the line that they are looking at opening in October. Dunno how accurate or current this info is. I see some logic in opening before snow set in, but looking at how behind areas like downtown are, I have big doubts.
