Bridge Open!

Anyone who uses the Taylor Creek/Seton/Serena Gundy parks, in Toronto, to cycle will be well aware that the bridge linking Taylor Creek and Seton parks had been out of commission for almost a year. This morning I was happy to find the bridge renovation finally completed.

Here are some pictures I took of the bridge:



The original bridge was not removed where it crosses over the railroad tracks, but new aluminum “boards” were installed.



Here’s a view of the tracks, looking west. The bridge in the distance supports the Don Valley Parkway. While I was at the bridge a GO train went by, but I didn’t manage to get a picture of it.



The ramps leading up to the bridge were entirely replaced. The ramp on the west side of the bridge goes under Don Mills Road.



The ramps used to be surfaced with wood slats, which had become quite worn. Asphalt is now used.



This is looking up the ramp that leads to the bridge from the west side.



Someone added a silhouette of a walking person on the footing at the east side.



More graffiti under Don Mills Road.
