Please join Walk Toronto during Open Streets 2019, on Sunday August 18 and Sunday September 15, for a walk up Yonge Street to discuss its history, its potential transformation into a pedestrian-oriented street, and various other pedestrian issues.
The walk will be led by Sean Marshal and other members of Walk Toronto’s steering committee. The walk will take approximately 2 hours.
Dates: Sunday August 18 and Sunday September 15, 2019
Time: Meet at 11:00 am
Meeting Point: South of Yonge and Shuter Streets, near the Elgin Theatre
New residential and commercial developments are bringing many more people downtown, and many of those people walk, cycle, or take transit, rather than drive. Yonge Street, despite the crowds, was designed for drivers, rather than the majority of users, but now there is an opportunity to change that situation with the City of Toronto’s Yonge TOmorrow initiative.
