The drive down the Don Valley Parkway should be a little smoother on Wednesday after work on the Don Mills bridge wrapped up early.
Crews completed stage 1 work on the bridge two weeks ahead of schedule.
Lane restrictions were taken down around 3 a.m.
The long term construction both ways on the DVP at Don Mills has cleared for now but the left lane still blocked both ways at Lawrence

City officials say restrictions will shift on Thursday so that crews can begin phase 2 of the project — meaning the shoulders of the DVP at Don Mills will be closed.
The southbound DVP on-ramp from northbound Don Mills will also be closed until the project is finished in October.
Repair work on four DVP bridges — Don Mills, Spanbridge, Wynford and Lawrence — began in July.
City officials said crews are working to make sure the bridges meet standards and stay safe for vehicles and pedestrians.
