We’re heading into month three of the hydro upgrade on Laird Drive and there’s lots of work being done, but it is a long street. We hear it may be about the end of summer by the time the new hydro conduit is laid and cabled all the way to Eglinton. Those on South Bayview will recall it took five months to finish a similar job on the Bulldog’s namesake drag in 2009. At that time it was said the work would permit the burying of high voltage lines under South Bayview. So far that part remains to be done. This picture of the Laird Drive work is taken right outside the CIBC branch in the Leaside Village. Pedestrians today were using the bank as a bypass sidewalk rather than cross the street. In the south door, across the reception area, say hi to the picture of Manager Despina Polymeris and out the north door. Stay calm and carry on, we say.
