The corridor of the King St. transit pilot is getting a much needed facelift with the installation of new public spaces, a move the city hopes could draw more people.

In a press release on Thursday, the city announced that they have begun installing public spaces along King St. between Bathurst and Jarvis Sts., the stretch involved in the pilot. Almost 30 new sites will be opened, which the city says will add “ to the vibrancy of the street.”
