Good Morning BIA Members, Here's this week's update. Broadview/Danforth Construction: The timetable for closing the southbound lane on Broadview has been moved up and will go into effect this coming Monday, July 31 at 6am. This means that no one will be able to turn south onto Broadview from Danforth. There will be the one northbound lane running up Broadview from Gerrard to Danforth but there will be no parking, stopping or standing allowed. Sidewalks will remain open; the crosswalk…

Good Afternoon BIA Members, I'm sending this in advance of my usual Friday updates so that, for those of you who wish, you can put the memorial in your calendars. This Saturday, July 22, 2023 marks the 5th year since the Danforth shooting. For those of you who were BIA members at that time you know how terribly it affected everyone in our community and it took a long time to recover from the shock of it all. To mark…

Good Afternoon BIA Members, Here's the information that I have for you today. Broadview and Danforth Construction: The sidewalk replacement work on the east side of Broadview south of Danforth has been completed. I know some of you were very frustrated with this work. Again, the BIA did not ask for all of this, it is determined by the City. I meet with the City and the TTC every Friday morning - have done so for the past 2 months…

Good Afternoon BIA Folks, Another week and here's the scoop that I have to share. Broadview Construction: The additional sewer repairs at Broadview and Danforth were completed this week and apparently everything is now fixed and in good working order. Sidewalk repairs started this week on the west side of Broadview and should be complete by early next week - depending on weather. Sidewalk repairs on the east side of Broadview will start next week. These repairs will span from…

Good Afternoon All, Hope everyone is managing to stay cool during this hot first week of July. It's been another hectic week and here's where we're at with various projects. CONSTRUCTION Broadview/Danforth: - As you know from my email earlier this week, it was decided that our section of Broadview could stay fully open for the time being while the work starts further south - Gerrard to Sparkhall. However, anyone driving south on Broadview will have to turn off before…

Good Afternoon BIA Members, There's been a change to the road closure plans for our section of Broadview - Sparkhall to Danforth. For now the one lane northbound is in place from Gerrard to Sparkhall. Once drivers get past Sparkhall the full road opens up again. This means that in our section of Broadview we have full road access - all lanes and parking. However drivers travelling southbound from Danforth will still have to turn off before they reach Sparkhall.…
