A vibrant downtown needs a grocery store that can be reached by bike or foot. Will it finally happen? .

With a new tower approved for 800 units at the Forks of the Thames, has downtown London reached the point where it can finally support a full-service grocery store?

Could @westernuFM comment on this closure? Information on how long it will be in place and any detour options would be appreciated. Thanks!.
The bike lane on Middlesex Drive at UWO is closed from Perth/Lambton to Middlesex/UC sidewalk. Fenced off, inaccessible. I didn't see any detour info (it appears most of the bottom of the hill at Perth/Lambton closed), not convenient. Any info on this @WATS_UWO? #ldnontbike.
