Rosedale’s Glen Road pedestrian bridge has been closed for an apparently unknown period of time for emergency repairs. The City issued a release this morning (Wednesday, August 3, 2013) that the well-used footbridge connecting the southern reaches of Rosedale with Bloor Street was found to require urgent repairs during a routine inspection. The news release says only that the bridge will be opened again once repairs are complete. The bridge extends from the intersection of Glen Road and Dale Avenue, across the Rosedale Valley Road to Bloor Street East just east of Sherbourne Street. The closure means that pedestrians will now have to walk out to Sherbourne St. along Maple Ave. and use the Sherbourne bridge to reach Bloor.
