I know a lot of Oshawans have been asking and waiting a long time, me included, when the Greenhill Ave extension east of Harmony Rd. N. will be open.
Short answer: Soon, late September.
With the Conlin Rd E road reconstruction now underway, it is most frustrating that Greenhill Ave east isn't open to traffic yet...but according to City staff in the Economic & Development Department the latest detailed response is "the contractor for the project has completed construction of the road but a number of finishing works remain, such as line painting and the construction of a sidewalk on the south side of the road. In addition the contractor is working with the Region of Durham on signal coordination matters for the Greenhill Ave-Harmony Rd N. intersection that must be completed prior to opening the road extension to the public. Based on the most recent update from the contractor, the above items are expected to be completed in the next few weeks and the Greenhill Ave extension between Harmony Rd. N and Irvine Scott Dr. is anticipated to be open by late September."
The picture of the new road extension below is one I took last week of the view behind the parked bulldozer looking east from Harmony Rd. N.
