Toronto police said that beginning at 2 a.m., the Gardiner will be closed from South Kingsway to the DVP.
The DVP will be closed from the Gardiner to York Mills Road.
Road closures will also be implemented in the area around Exhibition Place.
“Due to the extensive road closures, motorists can expect significant delays in the downtown core, particularly on arterial roadways. Alternative routes and public transportation are strongly recommended,” police said.
