The sidewalk and a portion of the eastbound curb lane on the south side of Bloor Street East fronting the site are currently closed to accommodate construction staging operations for the development. City Council, at its meeting on February 26, 2019, approved the subject construction staging area on Bloor Street East, from March 5, 2019 to March 5, 2020. A time extension of the construction staging area on Bloor Street East for an additional 20 months is required, in order to complete the construction of the development. However, Transportation Services is seeking authority for only 12 months (i.e. March 6, 2020 to March 8, 2021) at this time. Staff will review the need to further the duration of the construction staging area and seek authority from City Council, if necessary.
Staff recommended
The Acting Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services, recommends that: 1.
