As construction on the Hazel McCallion Line progresses, crews will be welding tracks and doing concrete work for guideway installation within the intersection of Hurontario Street and Mineola Road. This work is scheduled to begin Thursday July 25th, 2024, at 10pm, until Wednesday August 28, 2024, at 10pm.
During this work, east-west traffic will be prohibited at Mineola Road, across Hurontario Street in each direction. Left turns will also not be permitted in the intersection.
Detours for eastbound traffic along Mineola Road are available via Woodland Avenue, Inglewood Drive, Oriole Avenue, and Eaglewood Boulevard at the new signalized intersection to cross Hurontario Street. Detours for westbound traffic along Mineola Road are available via Broadmoor Avenue, Windy Oaks, Crossfield Bend, and Eaglewood Boulevard at the new signalized intersection to cross Hurontario Street.
Transit services will be impacted by these construction works, including a detour for MiWay Route 8. Please visit www.miway.ca/updates for updates on your bus route.
In an effort to expedite the work at Mineola and Hurontario, our crews will be working continuously overnight on the intersection guideway starting Monday August 12th to Friday August 23rd. At that point, all guideway and track installation work will be within the hours of 7am to 5pm.
While we understand, this is very inconvenient to the community, this expedited effort will ensure the work is completed and the intersection will be fully open in time for the start of the new school year.
Traffic signal timings will be adjusted to keep people moving. Pedestrian crossings will be maintained at a signalized crosswalk. Please follow the signs installed to assist with navigating around the closure.
