The most
disruptive road work in the city is starting up again this week.
Its significant effect already the inspiration for a
poster campaign among local merchants with the tag "Road work sucks," the work on Roncesvalles seems to have been going on forever, and after a short respite, it's up and running again, part of a $9-million improvement program for the area.
"This project was initiated through the maintenance program for track replacement," says city senior engineer Salima Jivraj, "and subsequently tacked on various public realm improvements from the Environmental Assessment initiated 2008."
The work will now consist of streetcar track replacement and road resurfacing. It's expected to last until July.
