Sinkhole causes closure of Parkside Road in Toronto’s west end

Parkside Drive is closed in both directions following reports of a sinkhole, Toronto police say.

In a social media post Thursday morning, police said they were on the scene near Parkside Drive and High Park Boulevard, located in the city’s west end.

Flooding of the road blocked all lanes of traffic on Wednesday night, according to the city’s Main Roads account on X, formerly Twitter. The road is no longer flooded, but images on social media show large sinkholes along the side of the road.

Police did not say when the road might reopen.
