Million dollar fix needed for Pottery Road

An additional sum of almost $1 million will be required to make repairs to Pottery Road. Some $924,000 is needed to cover the reconstruction of a retaining wall which was apparently built too low. This resulted in instability in the earth wall of the ravine. The stretch of road that connects Bayview and Broadview avenues has been closed since May 24 to make improvements, including a bicycle lane. Back then, the city said the closure would end Sept. 5, but the road is still closed. The City now says it will be open by November 30. Previous story.
