Summer storms have played havoc with the trails and bridges in Edwards Gardens and along Wilket Creek over the past few years. They were repaired once after storm damage in 2001 but those repairs were torn away in subsequent storms, the latest in 2005. With the area being prone to flooding the challenge is to make repairs that won't be swept away in the next big storm. Getting the repairs done have had to wait till staff determined how to resolve this challenge. The good news is that repairs will be coming this summer.

Flooding has taken out sections of the Thomas J. Bata Trail along Wilket Creek between Sunnybrook Park and Edwards Gardens.

The City of Toronto will be doing remedial repairs this summer to damage in Edwards Gardens and the Thomas J. Bata Trail. There will be an information meeting held on Monday June 4th at 7:00 pm at the Sunnybrook Park Pavillion with a presentation on the plans for work that will be conducted this summer. The meeting will be hosted by Councillor Cliff Jenkins Ward 25 Don Valley West who is eager to see improvements to the Bikeway Network in his ward.
