Yes, just this year in fact. Tricore is still finishing bringing water to the existing businesses north of Inkster and west of route 90. The line runs down Centreport Way from all the way from St Eustache to that new booster station that is by the Prairie Dog Central.
It is much more expensive than in most of the city to dig there. Sometimes you need to blast the rock. But big excavators can handle most of the material.
