This is all last-minute stimulus money that has to be spent. In the case of Mount Pleasant, I was, well, pleasantly surprised to see the resurfacing south of the CPR, and, most crucially, the intersection with St. Clair. It had gotten so bad there that the old streetcar tracks had almost completely come up to the surface. I don't know if they actually excavated them out, or just resurfaced the road, but it's *much* better now.
And I agree, Bayview is a disaster. Now that Yonge has been rebuilt from Wilson to Eglinton (and the parallel stretch of Avenue Road has been rebuilt over the past few years as well), I suspect we'll start seeing work on Bayview, especially now that they've completed rebuilding the bridge at Lawrence.
Yeah, I noticed there was heavy work for bayview at eglinton (beside McDonalds) and the Lawrence bridge- those 2 are done now so I hope they repave the whole road top to bottom (steeles to somewhere past queen st?)
The section between 401 and york mills doesnt have that may utility cuts (thanks for explaining). The road is just really old and it has cracks in a million places
St Clair/ Mt Pleasant was bad as well. Why were the tracks removed? did they get rid of streetcar service there?
