Starting Monday, Londoners can expect more detours to the east part of the city, as two roads will be closed until late November. Florence Street between Eleanor Street and Ashland Street and a section of Eleanor Street between Florence Street and Frances Street will be closed. The road closures are part of the Florence, Eleanor and York infrastructure renewal project, an initiative to replace aging infrastructure. Work being done includes replacing the watermain and underground sewers, adding new curbs, catch basins and gutters. According to Renew London, the construction will also close bike lanes, create an LTC detour and close and restrict sidewalks. Business will remain open, and pedestrians are encouraged to follow posted signage. Those using London transit are encouraged to check out the LTC website. This closure follows last month’s closure of nearby Rectory Street for construction lasting until fall.
