November 19, 2009
As a result of a water main break near our main entrance of the Hospital, the Bathurst Street entrance is closed both to pedestrian and vehicle traffic while repairs are underway. We apologize for the inconvenience and expect this to be in effect all of today, November 19th and possibly into the 20th. We ask that people use the Ambulance entrance or the Brain Health Centre entrance as alternatives.
