Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

[Coolibop]

The first phase of the Rouge Beach Improvements Project has started and closed part of the waterfront trail until spring '27... resulting in quite the lengthy detour should anyone venture out east this coming year.

Unsuprisingly this sudden detour has stirred some feathers out East. Some apparently were using the bridge to get to/from work: Some at the Abbeywood retirement home were commuting locally from Port union for example. Local politicians were set to have a meeting this past week and are asking for further requests to keep it open.

I'm unsure what exactly the nature of the work requiring the closure of the bridge for over a year...
