It was nice to see that the City of Surrey had completed, in the summer of 2014, a badly needed crosswalk of 24 Avenue at Semiahmoo Trail, just west of 152nd Street, together with a median along 24 Avenue.

Presently, the recently completed crosswalk and the median are being removed to allow for the construction of a new water main along 24 Avenue and will need to be replaced once the water main is in place.

Is it really that difficult for the city’s engineering department to co-ordinate construction activities in the same area within a six-month period, or does anyone at the city really care for wasting of taxpayers’ money?
