Torrential downpour exposes Toronto’s ageing infrastructure
Description
July 17, 2024
It is back to business in Toronto after a record-breaking storm yesterday that dumped so much rain that parts of the city came to standstill. That water has receded, and traffic is flowing again on major highways. Power has mostly been restored to thousands of customers. Some roads are still closed though and many home owners are mopping up and assessing the damage. The torrential downpour is wakeup call about the weaknesses of Toronto’s aging infrastructure. Eric Sorensen has more on whether the city can handle another onslaught.
