The St Clair Ravine
The Taylor Massey Project
Reach A5
With no access to either the area between Warden and the embankment
for the subway line, or to the west side of the ravine from the
north side of St Clair, the ravine is almost isolated and does not
provide a direct travel route between other reaches. Nonetheless,
it is a delightful little ravine, well used by the local residents,
and has good potential for increased naturalization and the creation
of some small wetlands. Note the greenway running north-east beside
the subway line as an alternate route out to Birchmount and the
front gate to Pine Hills Cemetery.
Reach Issues
- This short reach has two fish barriers, several stormwater
pipes, and one priority outfall that need to be remediated under
WWF.
- The TMP suggests increased naturalization for the reach.
Other Information
- We hope to have an event in this area soon, and would like
to create a local stewardship group or work with an existing area
organization. Contact us at Eco@theTMP.org
if you want to help.
