"Bay Street and Beyond" - More Than a Construction Project  

There’s more to this project than bringing in machinery and alternate routes - it involves replacing underground pipes from 1944, improving the road platform, enhancements to pedestrian safety, and creating more opportunities for active transportation. This phased construction project spans approximately 1.9 kilometers and is scheduled from 2024 – 2026.
