They should change all the old bridges and put in the same new modern ones that are slim to past boots through as seen in the photos up above. All the way up to River Dale park keeping the same theme!

Do you realize what is using those bridges today.?????

A hell lot more cost than replacing the bridges will cost.

If I remember right, that dirt area will become part of the river and the sediment area.

There is a lot more been use for those unuse bridges over the roads that will cost a lot more to move than rebuilding bridges or painting them. What good is it to paint something or built new when they are tag with hours or days of being done.

Cleaning up the Don and the Green Space rank at the bottom of most people list to fund or do. Great for some of use to see, but most people don't give a shit.

Some day the committee will say yes to cleaning this area up.
 
It's been a long time since they flew their drone to video the construction status, you would think with such a high profile project they would do it every 3 months or something. I like watching those videos gives good overview of the status.

We should spend huge amounts of money, because you don't like the look of something!

Though it's a separate (City) project it seems to fit best here so I can report that the planned refurbishment of the Ship Channel Lift Bridge has started. One (alternating) lane of traffic (bike path unchanged). Signage says starting March 2022 and completion in 2025. Info on the (large) project is at http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2021.MM35.36
 
Interesting these extensions are only until July 31, are they expecting completion?
