Temporary ramp looks finished but will need some care - especially when wet.
Lots of engineers standing around when I went through yesterday afternoon.
Whilst I'll appreciate the separation from cars - don't want to think how many times a car has reversed out in front of me - not sure how they are going to resolve the conflict with pedestrians. Don't want another City West where commuters basically cross track and are straight onto the path.
Lets see what transpires.

The PSP is being built over the top of the existing underpass so the pedestrians will have an option to avoid crossing the PSP at grade if they leave from the western end of the station. The SE exit from the station will still cross the PSP but it runs alongside for a short distance first (~10m) giving you a better chance of seeing pedestrians before they cross the PSP and allowing them to queue to cross the track without spilling back onto the path.matthecat wrote: not sure how they are going to resolve the conflict with pedestrians.

They are using thermoplastic rumble strips on approach to the crossing to try and manage cyclist speed.
