Intersection of Queen/Spadina Off Limits for Two Weeks

Posted By: Newstalk 1010 · 7/9/2012 5:55:00 AM

If you normally drive in the area of Queen and Spadina, you'll have to find a different way to get around the area for two weeks beginning Monday.

The intersection in all four directions will be closed thanks to TTC track and switch work.

TTC Spokesman Danny Nicholson says between July 9th-23rd, there will be no street car service along Queen between Church and Shaw.  No vehicle traffic in the area either.

TTC customers are being asked to walk down to King and take either the King, or the Queen Streetcar, that is being diverted.

He says the construction was scheduled for the two weeks and had to be done.

Nicholson recommends for TTC passengers and drivers alike, to expect an extra 15 minutes on the commute.

    I think we will soon find that there has been NO preparation. Adelaide is still under construction. Real preparation would involve enforcing no-parking and no-stopping on adjacent streets. Real preparation would involve cancelling movie shoot permits while this intersection was in chaos.

    so, is the intersection ready for re-opening?
    If not, look out for more Spadina Bus, Spadina Bus accidents!
