Quick Post: North Park and Cunard

So I went to work today through North Park and Cunard. No big deal; had to swerve onto the sidewalk (multi-use path, actually) and ride on the Commons for a bit. On the way back however, I found the end of Agricola St is totally blocked and fenced



If you're going southbound on Agricola and want to go through the intersection, I think you have to turn up Sarah St., turn left on Moran and another left back onto Cunard, then take the initial chunk of the new roundabout onto North Park. You essentially have to do this in reverse to get back northbound as N. Park only empties onto Cunard, and only Cunard-West.




The exciting thing about this recent change is that the south portion of the roundabout and N. Park is slowly opening up again. The picture is slowly coming together! The downside --and I figured this out during my jog tonight-- is that the pedestrian lights are being taken down and you can tell motorists don't really know how to behave. Do they stop for pedestrians? Do they just rush through and expect you to stop? 

It is definitely the latter. Pay attention out there, stay visible and stay safe!
