Two newly constructed bridges signify a major step in the Toronto Port Lands redevelopment effort, say the projects’ partners, reported Connect CRE. "The Cherry Street North and Commissioners Street bridges have opened for vehicle, pedestrian and cyclist traffic. About 500 acres of once under utilized Port Lands are to be redeveloped as part of an urban renewal project headed by Waterfront Toronto." "Funded by three levels of government, Waterfront Toronto partners with the city’s waterfront secretariat and community, public and private sector organizations to create shore-area parks, public spaces, cultural amenities and commercial and residential real estate developments." "The two bridges connect the future Villers Island to downtown Toronto and are part of Waterfront Toronto’s $1.3-billion Port Lands flood protection project. The infrastructure developments are central to the district’s revitalization and regeneration effort, according to the partners." https://lnkd.in/gZrhTn8x #toronto #infrastructure #development

Jeanette White of the N.C. Department of Transportation (NCDOT) updated the Sylva Rotary Club on the R-5600 project to reconfigure N.C. 107 through Sylva's commercial corridor. The $155 million, 2.6-mile project aims to improve safety and traffic flow by implementing a right-in, right-out configuration and adding several walls to minimize business impact. Construction, starting in late 2025 and lasting about four years, could be shortened by working during low-traffic daylight hours. The project will modernize stormwater management and incorporate a green wave traffic system. Despite community concerns, efforts have been made to reduce business disruptions, with 40 businesses impacted. The project also includes refurbishing existing bridges, managing utilities, and potentially adding a detour near Smoky Mountain High School to expedite construction. #NorthCarolina #TrafficSafety #Bridges #Projects

Success Story: Access Self Storage in Bristol Planning permission was originally granted in 2008 for a self-storage facility and residential units, but the project was not completed due to the financial crisis. Subsequently, a new plan was approved, focusing solely on a large self-storage facility, while retaining as much historic fabric as possible. The planning process involved multiple stages, including pre-application submissions, amendments to the original decision, and addressing demolition and design challenges, culminating in approval at Planning Committee despite local opposition.
