North service Road east of Dixie has been completely removed from Google Maps!
That because it doesn't exist anymore with the new QEW off ramp partly built with the new ramp to Dixie Rd in place. Same goes for the old Dixie connection to the North Service Rd as it is gone as well.

Coming off the QEW for Dixie Rd, the new ramp road is still not open as it is waiting paving and patching various section. Crew working on more sound barrier wall. You will hit the temporary ramp that now connects to Dixie Rd. The new North Service Rd off Dixie is now open going eastbound with the westbound still close off.

Had a looked at the Ogden new walkway. The ramp is in place as a duel lane and is paved. Crew placing steel post to support the ramp hand rail on the north side. Concrete pour for the bridge walkway.

A block east and west of the plaza is the start/end of 4 lanes of traffic that is in various stages of being built with an opening of summer 2025.

The south side ramp is about 80% built and been heated with the remaining ramp to be built.

They finally fix the curve at Sherway that has gone back to the way it was before, excepted using the new bridge now. Never stop off to have a close look, but the closed roads are still closed and saw no work taking place..

Noticed miWay has removed that bus stop for the on/ramp for the QEW intersection as it made no sense in the first place if there is no northbound stop as well. There wasn't a need for it for the old road and I don't see a need one for the new one.

They have poured a barrier wall for the curve coming off the eastbound QEW along with some retraining wall support. Not sure why a base being lay for a road between the eastbound off ramp and the on ramp.

The old westbound off ramp to Dixie has been fully removed with equipment sitting on it in a row. The old road from Sherway to the new off ramp torn up,

They have built the last section ramp for the southside Ogden walkway and waiting railing. The northside ramp handrail is about 75% complete with it paved as well for the bridge.

Hard to say what will take place over the winter months and don't think any more road work will take place after this coming week.

Some unedited/tag shots that will be on line in January along with the other ones

Pedestrian bridge is open now. Still work to do with the fencing surrounding it, but open to public
That quick from me shooting it only 9 days ago. What did they used for protection on the bridge as I saw a pile of railing for it?? It will be some time before I get back to the area at this time to have a look.

Looking at the traffic cam, we can see some railing installed, hard to decipher the exact material used from this far.
