It’s expected the over $20 million project to widen Bell Boulevard from Sidney Street to the west will be completed soon.
The work was seen as a catalyst opening up the area for new development.
Mayor of Belleville Mitch Panciuk says he’s in talks every couple of weeks regarding a proposed huge commercial development along Bell Boulevard that would include Costco.
“… the development company that’s going to be building and leasing the facility to Costco. So these are the folks here in Ontario, but I have spoken with
folks as high up as the real estate vice president in Seattle and it’s not a question of “if”, it’s a question of “when”.”
Costco opened a new location in the Niagara region this past Friday.
A ribbon cutting marking the completion of the Bell Boulevard widening project is expected near the end of the month.
