This street's story: A blocked lane pushes traffic into the next one, which is why the delay is always bigger than the thing causing it.

The case we sent

Report details · AI-written, reviewed by the reporter

Metal pedestrian barrier fence is blocking public sidewalk access in front of the residential building at 1 Hambly Avenue, adjacent to a TTC bus stop pole, with no visible signage indicating authorization or purpose for the obstruction.

Description · in the reporter's words

A damaged metal barricade has been left behind by the City since last year’s Jazz Festival and has remained at this location for nearly a year without being removed. It is bent, unstable, and repeatedly falls over, creating a safety hazard near the 64 Main Street bus stop at 1A Hambly Ave. Local teens have also been using it to block the sidewalk and roadway. Please remove it as soon as possible.
