TTC staff have detected a blocked drain in the escalator pit at Dupont Station. They’re using a vacuum truck to clear the pipe.
From Friday, April 22 until Monday, April 25 and from 1 until 5 a.m. each day, TTC crews will drain the pipe and power wash the escalator area. They’ll also pump water overnight in the station.
The work has no impact on subway service or passenger access in the station. It also does not impact on traffic or TTC buses near the station.
For safety, crews will set up and remove the work access area overnight through the station’s main entrance doors.
Expect noise and vibration.
