Avoid Gardiner Expressway this Weekend!!

[Aijaz]

Holy crap!! Just got back home, I had to turn around my car, lakeshore was/is totally jammed up from Spadina all the way to Etobicoke. The bridge at Jameson crossing the gardiner has been completely torn down with bulldozers. The whole area is a warzone right now.

Avoid!!

[Honest-like it or not]

When was the tearing down of the Jameson overpass planned?

Its sad that no one has been able to figure out what to do with the Gardiner. With all those condos abutting the expressway, starting from the Exhibition, looks like we've got zero options now.

No idea, I didnt even know they were planning to till I drove by it.
I'm guessing it had structural problems from wear & tear

 

[HELP!]

Sorry to pick on you Esco but you just hit my pet peeve. There isn't any bull dozers in that pic, a few excavators, a loader and a few dump trucks.

Some of you should start taking the TTC.

Just make sure you have the proper fare.
