As part of the Port Lands Flood Protection Project and Enabling Infrastructure Project, Waterfront Toronto has undertaken the construction of the Cherry Street re-alignment, between Lake Shore Boulevard East and Polson Street. A construction staging area has been set-up on the west side of Cherry Street and the north side of Polson Street.

In addition, a temporary detour (diversion) roadway has been fully constructed within the existing northbound lanes, east boulevard on Cherry Street, and the additional lands on the east side of Cherry Street (leased from City of Toronto Economic Development Corporation ) to accommodate northbound and southbound vehicular traffic around the construction staging area. City Council, at its meeting on May 28, 2020, authorized the subject construction staging area on Cherry Street, from June 29, 2020 to February 28, 2022. Waterfront Toronto has requested an extension of the duration of the construction staging area on Cherry Street, in order to complete the construction of the Cherry Street re-alignment. Based on the information provided by Waterfront Toronto, the site has experienced construction delays due to delays in steel fabrication for the Cherry Street South Bridge and ground improvement constraints between the new bridge and Polson Street. Transportation Services is requesting authorization to extend the duration of the construction staging area and temporary detour (diversion) roadway until May 31, 2022, in order to complete the construction of the re-alignment.
