Humber Bay East is Closed until Spring 2024

As I am currently planning a schedule for TDSB winter walks, I went this morning to see whether or not Humber Bay East can be visited.

The road to the parking lot is closed and the area cannot be entered until the completion of construction in 2024.

You can still walk along the ponds at the northern boundary and all of Humber Bay West is available. There are several parking lots.
