Upbeat Report On Peel Plaza Development

It's smooth sailing so far for the cost of infrastructure upgrades relating to the Peel Plaza project.

That, from Bill Edwards, the project manager who says the only unexpected cost crews have run into so far had to do with the disposal of contaminated material on Carleton Street.

Edwards says things are slightly behind schedule because of the complexity of the work with essentially the complete reconstruction of Union Street. He says much of it is being done by hand and crews have to watch out for live power lines that run right down the centre of the street.

Edwards says they're doing whatever they can to address the needs of the travelling public as well as the people who use the affected areas for business.
