#1. Moving On... Life after Construction:

The Beach is back in Action, and it has more life to it than ever! With the warm weather and construction on the streetcar tracks nearing completion, let's look forward to a busy and prosperous summer. Let's hear what Beaches Lions Club has to say:

 

"In  Italy,  all  roads  lead  to  Rome.

In  the  Beach,  all  roads  lead  to  Kew  Gardens.

The  Beach  is  ever a  better  place  to  live,  work,  shop  and   play.

Head  over  to  Kew  Gardens  for  the  Beaches  Lions  Canada  Day  Family  Festival."

 

TTC Streetcar Update: Streetcar service on Queen Street between Neville Park loop and Kingston Road is scheduled to resume June 19.

 

Queen street traffic situation:

Traffic lanes along Queen Street are now open in both directions, except for the eastern end between Silverbirtch and Victoria Park, where one lane open for eastbound traffic, while the westbound lanes reamin closed.
