To complete the remediation work on Ian Macdonald Boulevard and to ensure that this work is performed in a safe and efficient manner, it will be necessary to close a portion of Ian Macdonald Boulevard from Thompson Road to Founders Road for one week, from Monday, April 29 to Monday, May 6. In case of delays due to weather, unexpected findings etc., it may be necessary to keep the road closed on May 6 and 7.
Road and walkway closures
How will this impact the York community?

- Vehicular traffic will be redirected via Steeles Avenue East.
- Emergency vehicle access will be made available via Ottawa Road.
- Access to the parking lot of the West Office Building will be maintained.
- Pedestrian access will not be impacted by this closure.
