On the agenda

As the city filed it

A portion of York Downs Drive, east of Bathurst Street., has been scheduled for local road resurfacing by the Capital Program group. However, the timeline for this work is being driven (and delayed) by a Toronto Water watermain replacement project scheduled to take place in 2023. As the City coordinates and bundles infrastructure projects together, Transportation Services does not favour accelerating the resurfacing of York Downs Drive before the projected watermain replacement work takes place.

York Downs Drive, east of Bathurst Street, has no sidewalks and has been badly damaged as a result of years of construction, usage and weather erosion. Residents have long been forced to walk on the road to reach retail and transit services along Bathurst Street. The current pandemic has only worsened the aforementioned situation as neighbours try to adhere to social distancing guidelines while safely navigating the many potholes along York Downs Drive. The street is in desperate need of emergency patching and repair, as we wait for substantial resurfacing work to take place in the near future.
