Construction forces TTC changes

‘Complex’ from Page 1 streetcars will travel along Dundas Street East. Also, 505 Dundas streetcars will divert to the Bingham Loop (Kingston Road and Victoria Park Avenue) as they will be replacing the 22A Coxwell bus service that usually runs in that area on weekends and holidays.

Construction work for the Ontario Line at Queen Street East and Degrassi Street will also be impacting TTC service starting in July or August.

The changes here will impact the 501 streetcar service in the construction area and is dependent on the sewer work at Gerrard and Lower Coxwell being completed on time. The plan is for the 501 streetcar to divert from Queen up to Gerrard between Broadview and Coxwell while the Degrassi work is taking place.

The paving work at the Main Station bus bay will also force a number of bus service changes which are slated to begin on May 7. As of that date, the 23 Dawes, 62 Mortimer, 64 Main, 87 Cosburn, 113 Danforth, and 135 Gerrard will be stopping on Main Street outside the station and not in the bus bay area.

Also, the 20 Cliffside route will be shortened to Victoria Park Station, and the 62 Mortimer route will be extended to Victoria Park Station while the paving work takes place at Main.
