what you need to know:

• On Wednesday, crews will install new hydro poles along Bathurst St. between North Park Rd. and Centre St. [Map 1].
• On Friday, crews will install new hydro poles along Bathurst St. between Centre and Promenade Circle [Map 2].
• Southbound Bathurst will be reduced to one lane around the work areas.
• Driveways may be temporarily disrupted.
• As each new pole is hoisted up and over existing wires and placed on its foundation, traffic in all directions will be stopped for up to 10-15 minutes at a time.
• Traffic control staff and paid duty police officers will be on site to direct traffic as required.
• For the next two weeks, the southbound bus stop on Bathurst just north of Centre will be temporarily relocated to North Park. Please watch for directional signs.
• Sidewalks will remain open wherever possible. If a sidewalk is closed, directional signs will guide pedestrians to the nearest open sidewalk.
• Over the next two to three weeks, crews will be working on framing the poles and stringing the lines in this area. To accommodate this work, short-term curb lane closures may be required.
• Please give yourself enough time to get to your destination, and remember to reduce your speed through construction zones.
• Due to the nature of this work, there will be construction-related noise from equipment and trucks.
• Some weekend and overnight work may be required. Check the overnight page on vivanext.com for updates.
• Check out this video [of the vivaNext project on Yonge Street] for a look at how it’s done.
