Gardiner Lane Closures Coming in March
The City of Toronto announced that the Gardiner Expressway will be reduced to two lanes in each direction between Dufferin Street and Strachan Avenue for three years, beginning late March. This is part of the city’s six-part Strategic Rehabilitation Plan that was approved by council in 2016.
This stretch of the Gardiner is very close to Exhibition Place and the city says they are working with the appropriate groups to coordinate around major events such as the Honda Indy and the CNE. The closure will also coincide with the FIFA World Cup tournament. The city says the lane restrictions will be lifted for three months from May to July in order to accommodate the games.
Pedestrians will continue to have access to the GO Station and the city will be working with Metrolinx to avoid disruptions. City staff did warn that there will be significant traffic impacts and that the project will create some noise. Public notices and community meetings are expected to take place in the near future to inform residents.
