The main topic of discussion will be the Downtown Infrastructure Renewal Program with emphasis on Phase 1 being the reconstruction of Wyndham Street from Wellington St to Woolwich St starting in spring 2026. If we have time,  I can also touch on other high profile road works in the City such as the ongoing York Road Reconstruction and the replacement of the Speedvale Bridge also starting early 2026.
