Bridge will go up between Scotiabank Arena, Union Station

Work goes on this weekend and next to raise the new pedestrian bridge between Scotiabank Arena and the new Union Station GO Transit bus terminal. It is 39.5 metres (129.6 feet) long and is scheduled to be lifted into place early Monday. To accommodate the work, Bay Street will be closed from Front Street to Lake Shore Boulevard until 5 a.m. on Monday. GO buses will still be able to access the existing terminal during the closure, however Metrolinx says that some routes will be delayed five to 10 minutes. The bus terminal is expected to be completed in 2020.
