Good Afternoon BIA Folks, I hope everyone has survived this first week back to regular schedules, back to school etc. Here are the updates on our ongoing construction projects. Broadview South of Danforth: Some good news! The work in our section has moved along very quickly and the crew is ahead of schedule by one week! Holy Hannah! This never happens. Please note that we do have an open pit that is about 20 metres on Broadview just south of…

Happy September 1st All, I honestly can't believe it's already September. This summer season has been a challenging one for our BIA - massive amounts of construction, issues with the new CafeTO system and rolling out Taste for the first time since 2019. Unfortunately the construction will continue for us into the Fall season. I want to thank all of you for the patience you've shown during the summer and thank you in advance for the patience you will need…

Good Afternoon All, Today I'm covering updates on the area construction, City De-escalation seminars, and Taste feedback.

The work that you currently see on the south east side of the Broadview Danforth intersection is advance work on hydro connections - this needs to be done before the next phase of work starts on Monday. Travel…

Good Evening Broadview Danforth BIA Members, I'm sending this information to all BIA members because it's important that everyone understands what the westbound lane closure on Danforth between Ellerbeck and Broadview will look like and how things will operate beginning this Monday, August 14/23. This lane closure to westbound traffic also means that the north side of the Broadview Danforth intersection will be closed and there will be no southbound traffic allowed on Broadview from Pretoria to Danforth. People who…
