Quebec Street reopens to traffic today

Quebec Street will fully reopen to traffic by 5 p.m. today, marking substantial completion of the Quebec Street Infrastructure Renewal Project. Restricted lanes on Oxford Street at the Quebec Street intersection will also reopen to traffic today. 

New left turn lanes have been added on Quebec Street at Salisbury Street, Mornington Avenue, and Elias Street.

Bike lanes on both sides of Quebec Street are defined with temporary markings until top asphalt and flexible markers can be added in late spring of 2024.

About the Quebec Street Infrastructure Renewal Project

The Quebec Street Infrastructure Renewal Project has reconstructed Quebec Street between Oxford Street East and the CKPC (formerly Canadian Pacific) rail line to replace aging underground infrastructure that has met its expected lifecycle, while adding safety and mobility improvements above ground. 

This is one of nine critical local infrastructure projects to receive federal funding in 2023 through the Canada Community Benefit Program (CCBP). The 2023 CCBP projects are:

  • Arterial Road Mill and Pave Road Rehabilitation
  • Gower Street and Elworthy Avenue Infrastructure Renewal Program
  • Kilworth Bridge Rehabilitation
  • McKenzie Avenue, Baker Street, Windsor Street and Belgrave Avenue
