Town and Country project delayed

Construction on the new Town and Country development is slated to begin early in the new year. Originally scheduled for this October, the project is still being processed at the municipal level.
"(We are) moving forward with it, making sure it is a successful project from day one," said Geoff Nagle, with Morguard Investments. Public feedback over the summer was very positive, he added.
Over a three-year period Morguard Investments plans to spend more than $100 million to redevelop the shopping centre. The retail space will almost triple when the 600,000-square-foot complex is complete.

Good news because its a big project for Saanich, bad news because its rediculous. If you calculate it out, after they brach the mall itself out, and put underground parking, they lose 40% of the parking lots!
That place was already nuts to park in! Gee whiz.

Putting life into an aging mall, with style
In hemmed-in Victoria suburb, mall owner embraces densification in order to expand

Special to The Globe and Mail
SAANICH, B.C. -- The owner of the Town & Country Shopping Centre in Saanich, a suburb of Victoria, has long had big plans to develop the 45-year-old site into a modern shopping destination serving a growing community.
There's just one problem -- there's no room to expand.
Growth has pushed the community to the limits of an urban containment boundary the municipality instituted in 1964 to manage demand for city services. But years of traditional, low-density development have maxed out the district's available urban land base, prompting owners to consider redeveloping sites with more intense, mixed-use developments that do more with the land they occupy.
A case in point is a proposal that Toronto-based Morguard Investments Ltd. has put forward for the Town & Country, located in Saanich's business core.

...Walmart might build one of their walmart super stores that also sell groceries and not just a few isles of frozen or dry foods. I heard on the radio today that they plan 14 of these stores in Canada; the first one opened today in Ontario.

A lady from Saanich municipal hall said that department of Highways has jurisdiction over that stretch of road and that Saanich would like to see a mid block at grade crossing for "traffic calming" of blanshard st.
Yeah, that'll end up killing someone. Everyone who has come in from the Ferry does the exact same thing on that stretch; About 75kmh, cause they haven't quite mentally shifted over to the four lane in each direction divided road being a 50hmh zone :oops: .... Putting an at grade crossing onto the four lane in each direction divided road there is fricking nuts.
'Cause we all know that when a road is divided and has four lanes in each direction, traffic calming is going to work. :roll:

How can Saanich even consider traffic calming a major thoroughfare like that when they don't even have proper sidewalks on thier collector roads. What a joke.
