Since Monday, April 28, the City of Toronto has closed
- Sentinel Road, northbound lanes, between Sheppard Avenue West and Lamberton Boulevard
to accommodate City contractors who are restoring the roadway after earlier water-main construction.
Since late 2024, the contractors have rebuilt Sentinel Road between Sheppard West and Lamberton Boulevard and replaced the water-main between Dovehouse Avenue and Fonthill Place, including the City-owned portion of substandard water services.
The City is also installing raised cycle tracks on both sides of the road, making for a safer and more comfortable cycling environment. Where feasible, the project also improves pedestrian amenities, including wider sidewalks, accessible crossings and raised crosswalks. During the project, the TTC is also upgrading bus stops to integrate with the cycle track and improve safety for bus operators, transit riders and cyclists.
Starting 5 a.m. Wednesday, June 4, the City expands the work zone to include southbound lanes on Sentinel.
The TTC is further detouring buses along this route, while the street is closed:
- 106 Sentinel.

This phase of construction on Sentinel Road and the resulting TTC detour continue until July 26 (5 a.m.)
