Traffic Notice

Update: Nightly Lane Closures on the Don Valley Parkway from March 2 - 6


Nightly lane closures will take place on the Don Valley Parkway (DVP) in both the northbound and southbound lanes between Eastern Avenue and Lake Shore Boulevard and the Richmond Street on-ramp. Work will take place overnight between March 2 and March 6, from 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. At least one lane of traffic will remain open at all times. Daytime traffic operations will not be impacted.

 

During the closure of the Lake Shore on-ramp, access to the northbound DVP will remain available via two alternate routes: Queen Street E and Eastern Avenue.

 

Paid Duty Officers and traffic control personnel will guide traffic control at Lake Shore Boulevard East and Don Roadway to assist with traffic management and to maintain safe vehicle movement through the work area.
