In 2010, the City's Transportation Services will reconstruct the streetcar tracks along Roncesvalles. Part of that work will begin in the summer of 2009, with the water mains. It'll mean digging, dust and detours, most of it for about six months in the spring and summer of 2010.
It also presents oportunities to transform the streetscape.
That's where Roncesvalles Renewed comes in. We include local residents, business owners, city staff and political representatives. We are a joint committee that includes the Roncesvalles Village Bsusiness Improvement Area along with three Residents Associations -- the Roncesvalles-MacDonell RA, the High Park RA and the Sunnyside Community Association.
Along with the new streetcar rails, we have a chance to create a healthy canopy of trees, better sidewalks, beautiful public spaces, and a more involved community.
