The last update we received on the timeline for full resolution of the upgrades was given on July 14th where we were told it would be a couple months to finish the work. Since we're past that point now, would it be possible to get another timeline update from the team?

Glad to hear that the noise is better. We did ask for an update on the timeline so I am waiting on that but once I know more I will definitely let you know!
Thank you!
Hi Deekay3884,
thank you for bring this back on the burner and thank you El-Eric for the response.
I have noticed that the sound is a bit more muffled but it is definitely still causing disruption. The by-law office has indicated that this concern filed months ago is now 4th in line for investigation. Looking forward to this resolving amicably soon.
