Meanwhile a few kilometers north in Yorkville. Over a month customers of “merchants” on Bellair St. enjoying a pedestrian only space. Including high quality seating furniture - donated by various cooperations!

@PinkLucy - 311 will not do much. I wrote our city councillors Moise. His office said it’s expecting to go forward to pedestrianise Market St. Today the road sign equipment to close have been placed to the north east corner of the entrance of Market St. Late, but it’s something. By talking to...

Market St besides the St. Lawrence Market is still open for cars. It was supposed to close for drivers yesterday. Sad! https://secure.toronto.ca/council/agenda-item.do?item=2023.TE3.40

Thank you, @DSC. Those market merchants are not concerned about potential customer as they are regarding their cheap parking spot. See how below what a nonsense with those vehicles on Market St. and those are clearly not clients.

@DSC much to your and our delight new trees will be planted on Monday 29th May on Market St. However, why it takes such a long discussion to close such a small stretch to cars is beyond me. Look at all the destroyed bollards and street overall caused by of some vendors oversized vehicles. It’s...

@W. K. Lis I wonder why you are calling driving test strict? I’m aware of you pass the test you are receiving a drivers permit in Germany. Better than just a license! LOL

@Northern Light - I watched the story about High Park and how everything evolved. Where are we right now and we have been before in terms of car access? We had weekend and statutory holidays no car access already. Some funny stuff member who no one elected and no one knows influenced by who...

I went to the Military trail connection today. Still under construction. The trail cutting through the soil is looking impressive!

@DSC that means we only see a temporary closure of Market St for cars this year, but extended by two weeks into October compared to last year? I thought it was decided in the previous last years motion to have Market St pedestrians only for the full year?

The street lights are still covered up. Sad!

What’s the estimated year for starting with construction?

They promised to use a tent that the workers are able to put in the bricks. Yes, the corner of Scott is a mess. The street lights are still covered with bags?

Today, I had the opportunity to find out the latest updates regarding Wellington St. work. Main items are: South sidewalk work was delayed not only because of electrical wires underground. In the past there have been buildings where the Berczy park is now. Those foundations have been found...

Work on Wellington St. continued today. Crew was working on the south sidewalk. No sign of clearing the site, but looks more continued work. I assume some business as the pub and the hair dresser down the road insisted to get their entrance back! lol

Some street lights are working and some are covered up. Funny!

Another update of the adventuresome construction along Wellington St. The island east of the flat iron building is now paved with concrete. Was there no a better option to use pavers?

@DSC adding to that. The corner of Wellington and Scott is looking terrible. Seems hydro/ electricity work is outstanding?

@DSC - a big failure of the Major and other city officials to open Market St to cars again. Makes no sense for residents nor for businesses! The coming weekend will be sunny and relativity warm. This is what sustainable city life does look like! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

@DSC beautiful with those trees. Wasn’t so bad walking through it. Less of a Zickzack as I expected. However, the south side sidewalk is looking shabby compared to the north. So this will be redone? Also, going north on Church from there. Those cones where trees should be is sad looking!

Hopefully not decade!
