The Ontario Honda Dealers Indy Toronto is back in Toronto and there are a number of road closures in effect.
While the race itself doesn’t start until exactly 12:22 p.m. Sunday, July 20, practice and qualifying sessions will be in full swing starting Friday.
As such, the city closed Lake Shore Boulevard West, between Strachan Avenue and Ontario Drive, and Strachan Avenue, between Fleet Street and Lake Shore Boulevard West, on Wednesday.
The closures are expected to remain in place until at least Monday, July 21.
If the Sunday event is delayed or cancelled, the city says the final race will be held on Monday.
The TTC says it is adding extra service on the 29 Dufferin, 509 Harbourfront and 511 Bathurst routes from Friday to Sunday.
There will also be extra TTC staff at Exhibition Loop and Union Station to help riders navigate the area.
The TTC says those going downtown should be aware that there will be no subway service between Lawrence West and St. Andrew stations this weekend to accommodate planned track work and station upgrades.
Shuttle buses will be running and stopping at each station this weekend.
