Good Thursday morning and welcome back to Dawson Road Today!
We have sidewalks - aren't they beautiful? From doing my walkabout last night, I don't think they poured any more cement yesterday for sidewalks. The crew from JNF Concrete in London were busy yesterday setting up forms on the west side of Dawson Road from Roy-Al Rentals up to the big curve at Speedvale Avenue. They were also going back over the sidewalks that have already been poured and cutting the expansion slots into the cement with a power saw. This picture shows the new sidewalk in front of our shop Plants For All at 66 Dawson Road and facing south.
Now is a good time to remind you -yet once again, to only drive northbound. There are still people who insist on trying to go the wrong way. One of the workers from JNF concrete told me that the other day he was forced to drop some material he was carrying in the roadway for fear of being hit by someone driving southbound. You are not supposed to be driving southbound yet. The construction workers are not expecting you to be driving southbound and are not looking for you. Only drive northbound - not southbound. At the start of today when you enter the construction site you will be directed by the orange and black arrow sign to travel in the right hand lane going north.

The Bel-Air Construction crew is doing a lot of the infilling on the boulevards in preparation for the final landscaping and driveway grading. This necessitates bringing in additional material, moving existing material and 'shaping' the two together. These photos show some of this work going on around the driveway into our parking lot.Just arranged last night, Brian, from Plants For All, will be speaking at the Concordia Garden Group Wednesday, November 10 at 7:30 p.m. on the topic of 'Pest Control and Integrated Pest Management for Your Houseplants'. Keep up-to-date with 'what's happening' at http://plantsforallblog.blogspot.com
We had quite a bit of rain last night which is kind of lousy but not totally unexpected. I don't know; but I doubt if they can pour concrete for the sidewalks when it's raining. But remember, when it's raining there is less traffic on Dawson Road and easier for you to get into the shops and businesses. So come on down.
