Thousands of people are expected to take part in the Toronto Yonge Street 10k, and the public is invited to line up along the route to cheer them on.
Along the route, sidewalks will be open to pedestrians, but roads will be closed to vehicles.
The city said Yonge Street will be closed between Lawrence Avenue and Erskine Avenue from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m. to accommodate the formation area
