Toronto Caribbean Carnival

Toronto Caribbean Carnival is a staple of summer in our city. With construction in the area, I have also been pushing City staff to take measures to make sure residents and visitors alike can navigate the area safely and in a reliable way.

Toronto Caribbean Carnival is a staple of summer in our city. From August 1 - 4, it brings its incredible celebration to Exhibition Place.

If you are looking to attend, you can find all the events here. The best way to get to every event is via TTC and Go Train. There will be extra subway service on Line 1 Yonge-University and Line 2 Bloor-Danforth. There will also be extra streetcar service on the 509 Harbourfront and the 511 Bathurst lines.

With construction in the area, I have also been pushing City staff to take measures to make sure residents and visitors alike can navigate the area safely and in a reliable way.

City staff have committed to the following measures to make sure traffic in surrounding areas like Liberty Village stays moving:

Staff will be monitoring cameras from the Traffic Operations Centre and making signal timing adjustments, with extra staff in on Saturday during the Grand Parade to support any additional signal timing changes.
Traffic officers will be stationed at two intersections at Strachan/East Liberty and Dufferin/East Liberty.

For the Grand Parade, the following roads will be closed to all vehicle traffic from 12:01am on Saturday August 3 until 6:00am on August 4:

Lake Shore Boulevard West, from Bathurst Street to Colborne Lodge Drive
Strachan Avenue from Fleet Street to Lake Shore Boulevard West
Jameson Avenue, from Springhurst Avenue to Lake Shore Boulevard West
Dunn Avenue at Springhust Avenue
Dufferin Street, at Springhust Avenue
F.G. Gardiner Expressway westbound and eastbound exit #149 Dunn Avenue/Jameson Avenue

I will also keep working with City staff and advocating for resources through the Liberty Village Traffic Action Plan, rolling out short-term measures, and sharing resident feedback with City staff in Transportation Services.
