Fixed, and a neighbour went back to check.

Someone from this neighbourhood walked past on May 8 and confirmed the work was done, 6 days after you reported it. That is the loop closed by the people who live here.

Closed, on the record

Fixed in 6 days.

Elizabeth Street in Spadina-Fort York is a little better today because somebody said something, neighbours stood behind it, and the city finished the work. That is how this is supposed to work.

This street's story: Collection runs on a schedule, so a bin that overflows once tends to overflow again on the same day of the week.

The case we sent

Report details · AI-written, reviewed by the reporter

A damaged metal waste receptacle with a misaligned lid and visible rust is overflowing on the sidewalk in front of the commercial building at 103 Elizabeth Street. The bin's deteriorated condition and partial opening are allowing garbage to accumulate despite weekly collection service in the area.
