There's been a water leak at the base of the ramp that goes NORTH onto Bayview, after you come off the DVP for weeks now.

It covers the whole road at the bottom of that ramp and pools there, Ordinarily that's not a problem at all, but with temperatures dropping soon, it's lower, shadowed and at the base of a curved ramp with no other places for you to go so it's nearly a guaranteed wipeout if that water freezes.

Just keep in mind that once it gets just a couple of degrees colder, there will be no way to get onto Bayview north from the DVP without riding over a pretty wide sheet of ice. Better to get off at Don Mills for now and take O'Connor, Overlea, or Eglinton to get where you need to go.

Thanks for the heads up. I will actually be in the area tonight, and the temps looking to be -2C later on.
 
Maybe this has been done already but just in case, consider calling City of Toronto Public Works to report the leak and hazard.

They might not know, and it's not somebody else's problem, it's yours because you would be using that ramp otherwise until it became too dangerous.

Do the right thing and call it in they don't know if no one tells them.

I can't call because I haven't seen it as I am not in that area.
