"DVP trails" by kitest on April 4, 2007, 4:57 pm, in category General
it's been kind of disappointing to see that the DVP trail is cut off between queen st to lakeshore to help the construction of west donlands. as a frequent runner in there, the trail just stops and you can't continue as the city has barricaded the access point (it's where bayview stops as well). and it's been like that for at least 10 months, likely to go another 10. don't think it's that important to close off that section of trail for construction.
