Ellesmere Road, Toronto

Report Details
AI-generated, reviewed by reporter
A wooden utility pole supporting high-voltage powerlines has a deteriorated yellow protective conduit lying on the ground at its base, creating a tripping hazard and leaving the electrical infrastructure exposed. The safety barrier that should restrict public access to this high-voltage area is compromised. The reporter notes this unsafe condition extends across the powerlines along the north side of Ellesmere Road, with scattered litter and debris throughout the area that requires cleanup and hydro worker repairs.
Description
No trespassing fences for the high voltage powerlines are in extremely poor and unsafe condition. This extends all across the powerlines on ellesmere rd north side. In addition there is a large amount of loose litter and trash that should be removed as this is a no-mow meadow zone and soon it will be hidden by grass. This should be cleaned up asap and fence repaired by hydro workers.
