Street festivals and runs to close Toronto roads this weekend

It wouldn't be a weekend in Toronto without some road closures. With a major running event and the return of Pedestrian Sundays in Kensington Market this weekend, it's best to ditch the car and get into the fun of it all.

However, if you do plan on driving around Toronto this weekend, here's what you need to know.
