Summary

Engineering Construction Services has undertaken rehabilitation work on the Don Valley Parkway interchange at Bayview Avenue. The project involves rehabilitation of bridge and consists of multiple phases near the Don Valley Parkway southbound off-ramp at Bayview Avenue.

 

Prior to construction, vehicular traffic from the Don Valley Parkway off-ramp would merge free flow on to the southbound acceleration lane on Bayview Avenue. The southbound lane is currently closed to facilitate construction staging operations. As a result, vehicular traffic can longer merge on to Bayview Avenue safely without stopping. Therefore, Transportation Services recommends the installation of a stop control at the southbound off-ramp of Don Valley Parkway at Bayview Avenue. The stop control will serve as a temporary condition during construction and will be removed following the completion of the project phase in March 2025.
