Motorists should find alternative routes this weekend as the City of Toronto is set to close portions of roads to promote social distancing, as well as for construction projects.

On Tuesday night, a transport truck was travelling eastbound along Highway 401 near McCowan Road when a set of wheels detached from the trailer, OPP say.

The incident happened in a parking lot near Dufferin Street and Steeles Avenue West area Tuesday afternoon.

Emergency crews were called to the area of Bathurst Street and Glencairn Avenue, south of Lawrence Avenue West, at around 6:20 p.m. on Monday.

The closures are a part of the ActiveTO program, aimed at allowing pedestrians and cyclists to get around the city while still having enough space to physically distance.

Emergency crews were called to the area of Mill and Burnhamthorpe roads just before 8 p.m. on Tuesday.

Emergency crews were called to the intersection of Tapscott Road and Melford Drive just before 9:10 p.m. on Tuesday.
