Southbound traffic will be diverted with advisory signage, while northbound traffic will be diverted to eastbound and westbound Bloor Street .

Yonge Street to Avenue Road:
All major excavations have been completed for the north boulevard works, and granite installation has begun west of Bay Street .
Excavation of the roadway has begun between Yonge and Bay Streets, and will continue westward towards Avenue Road, following installation of the granite curb. The base coat of asphalt will be layed, however, the top/final coat of asphalt will not take place until the project is completed. The tree installation will take place this fall, and if all goes according to plan, we can expect that all of Bloor Street will be in bloom by Spring 2011.
