Renewing Overlea Boulevard

Watch this video to learn more about the proposed changes to Overlea Boulevard.
The City of Toronto is proposing to improve safety for people traveling along Overlea Boulevard at the following locations:
1. Don Mills Road, Overlea Boulevard, and Gateway Boulevard intersection
2. Overlea Bridge
3. Overlea Boulevard, west of the bridge to Thorncliffe Park Drive
4. Thorncliffe Park Drive East & Overlea Boulevard intersection
The City is proposing changes now because the Overlea Bridge deck, which was constructed in the 1960s, is in need of replacement. When replacement is needed, this is the most cost-effective time to implement change. Proposed changes include:
• Wider sidewalks, public art and enhanced public spaces
• New protected bicycle lanes
• Enhanced bus stops
• Intersection changes that maintain roadway uses for people driving, transit, deliveries, and emergency services
