Ontario will upload control of the Gardiner Expressway and the Don Valley Parkway from Toronto as part of a new deal to bail out the cash-strapped municipality, the Ford government has announced.
In exchange, the city will allow the province to take over the responsibility for Ontario Place, clearing the path for the Ford government’s controversial redevelopment of the crown lands.
The deal will also include money for transit and refugees, while the city will redouble its efforts to build housing and transit-oriented communities.
One commenter suggests the expressway plan will prevent Chow from imposing Tolls. Not sure about that.
No matter what we’ll still pay for it. h/t Ontario John
