Update: University Bridge remains closed for evening commute

University Bridge will remain closed for the evening commute on Wednesday, June 21, for fire response within an encampment under the bridge. Spadina Crescent remains closed between 24th and 25th streets, under the University Bridge during this work. This is a complete closure with no access to the bridge during this time for drivers or pedestrians. The bridge will remain closed until further notice.  

For your safety and ours, pedestrians and cyclists are asked to please stay away from the barricaded walkways at University Bridge.  

We ask drivers to reroute their commute: 

•  From the east side of the bridge, drivers are encouraged to take Clarence Avenue to 12th Street and use the Broadway Bridge or use 8th street and use the Traffic Bridge or Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge.  
• From the west side of the bridge, drivers are encouraged to take alternate routes downtown and to use the Broadway Bridge, Traffic Bridge, or Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge.       

This closure impacts transit service on Routes 4, 43, 44, 45, 46 and 6. Transit service alerts and real-time bus information are available on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit on desktop.        

Please allow for additional travel time to reach destinations, and remember to respect all detour signage.
