Good looking concrete job there. Overall this project is making great headway thus far this year.

Was Kichton on this job last year as an excavation sub? They've been doing a ton of the work around dt this year, nice seeing more contractors brought on.

They’ve been on it since 2021 if I remember correctly. Task concrete (seen in the picture) is a new contractor to this year

Why do the nice pedestrian crossings at this point in the project? Dollars to doughnuts those things get shredded and/or ripped up again during construction.

Good thing that would be covered by the contractor and even if it was after construction it’s covered by warranty… but ok

I thought the whole point was that all the construction at that intersection is being done in one shot. Hopefully no need for near future construction activities at those locations.

Can someone call it in?

City couldn't run a sweeper in at the end of the station in front of the YMCA there? WTF?!

I’m 311ing them. But litter should be a basic service. A few staff going up and down the line all day cleaning.
