It’s hard to imagine even a healthy cyclist pumping all the way up the steep side of the Don Valley, but for the very fit, there will soon be bike lanes. It’s part of the $4.7 million upgrade for the kilometre long stretch of road that connects Bayview Ave and Broadview Ave. Pottery Rd is a vital link to South Bayview for residents of Riverdale, Playter Estates and other neighborhoods. Many people like to come here to shop. The summer’s work will include burying of hydro and telephone wires, installation of new storm sewers and water mains (seen above) and a new retaining wall to the north. Signs will mark the entrance to the Lower Don Valley trail. The road re-opens September 5, 2011.Pottery Road to gain bicycle lanes
