South Bayview area retailer Andy Elder has taken to his FaceBook page to voice concern about the long-term traffic misery that will be created by the tunneling work for the Crosstown LRT. Read here and see the many comments. Andy says: “Okay Leasiders. It’s time to take a minute to fully comprehend what is about to take place at the throat of Eglinton between Brentcliffe and Leslie. Sometime in the next few weeks that stretch of road will become two lanes, one in each direction. It will stay that way for about 5 years as the Eglinton transit is tunnelled out. All of the tunnel material dug out to Yonge St. will be picked up at this access point. An engineering marvel. but think about how the narrowing to 2 lanes will change your commute and travel patterns. There will be other disruptions on Eglinton over that time. It’s hard to think of the next 5 years as short term pain but that’s what it will be”. Grilltime
