Slow Transformer?

Everybody on GVW's water system has been switched to the Duteau Creek Water Treatment System while a transformer is changed at the Mission Hill Water Treatment Plant.

(click to enlarge):

The switch-over duration is slated for September 28th until October 14th.
Huh?
Two weeks to change a transformer?

"Typical for Vernon," Kia would've said, "after all, 30th Street--a main thoroughfare--is totally shut down for FOUR months, which places horrendous congestion onto 32nd and 27th Streets."

The 30th Street closure...four months long!

Heaven forbid Vernon would actually do the streetwork at night (like MoT's Hwy 97 work through Kelowna)!

Maybe the local road contractor has a slow transformer too.
