Did anybody see this giant truck parked in the middle of the Bow River or along the pathway last week? I was so curious as to what was happening that I tracked down one of the workers associated with it. Turns out they were gathering core samples from below the river and all the way to the bedrock, to see if it would be a suitable place for a tunnel for the proposed C-Train line. The gentleman I spoke to told me how strict The City was with the drilling. One day they needed to halt all operations because the drilling was kicking up too much silt and polluting the river. If you see the truck east of Centre Street Bridge, The City isn't drilling for the C-Train, but a proposed new sewer line.
