Junction hollow work?

I noticed that the junction hollow trail has flags next to it and spray painted markings on it, similar to the way the jail trail was marked up the day before they announced and then started construction/closures. Does anyone have any idea if this trail will get dug up also?

I'm inquiring with someone in Friends of the Riverfront. On which part of the trail did you see flags & spray paint?

I believe it was most of the length of it from the soccer field to the access road to constable-blocked shortcut across RR tracks. If I recall correctly, friends of the riverfront didn't know or didn't tell anyone about the jail trail closures.

Damn. I'm betting a full height chainlink fence will appear there soon.

I heard a rumor that they will be installing lighting on that section of the trail. This could be related.

@Ted, indeed. This could be part of the "bike and pedestrian improvements" promised as part of the Greenfield bridge closure and having the official bike/ped detour go through the trail

The blue flags say WATER and the green flags say SEWER, in Junction Hollow.

^that looks like typical one-call markings that they do before any digging. So what the project is isn't clear.
