Woodland Avenue residents are fighting to keep Byron Linear Park intact as the city finalizes stage two LRT.

Larry Ladell with the Woodpark Community Association said New Orchard Station should be located north of Richmond Road instead of south.The current plan would destroy the neighbourhood’s only parkland with the construction of an open-air station serving the underground train, Ladell said. And most locals would have to cross Richmond to access the station.
