During this project on Huntingwood Drive, the City intends to

  • remove and replace roadway asphalt;
  • build raised median islands and planters to improve the bike lanes;
  • install raised TTC bus platforms; and
  • repair curbs, gutters and sidewalks.

Contractors are working in three phases:

  • Phase 1, July to November 2023 - east of Pharmacy Avenue to west of Warden Avenue (completed in 2023);
  • Phase 2, May to July 2024 - east of Warden to west of Birchmount Road (this phase); and
  • Phase 3, August to October 2024 - east of Birchmount to west of Kennedy Road.

Westbound buses operate along their regular path.

northward along Birchmount Road to Huntingwood,
resuming their regular path eastward along Huntingwood.
