Traffic

Road closures this weekend bring some relief, but they will surely still bring traffic.


The DVP and Gardiner will be open, and the Toronto road closures from the CNE have finally ended, but that doesn't mean downtown drivers will get a break.

Thanks to the Ukrainian Festival and the RBC Race for The Kids, much of downtown can expect to find road closures and streetcars diverting across the city.
