City fed up with uncoordinated utility work

[nfitz]

I was surprised by your response because I lived in the building at the southwest corner of Van Horne and Davaar for 18 months, so I went to Google streetview to see if my memory was faulty. The image shows sidewalks in all directions without any utility cuts and a road surface considerably better than the norm in Toronto.

Uh ... just looked there - http://maps.google.ca/maps?q=Avenue...id=C2z0tIPsGVUIFY2LFeBv1w&cbp=12,249,,0,13.22

I see a utility cut - not recent either, with very old asphalt in it. Cracked sidewalk. And pavement on Van Horne that has completely failed to the point of needing major construction instead of just a layer of asphalt.
