Starting 6:30 a.m. Friday, September 18, the TTC is closing the temporary passenger pick-up and drop-off area (PPUDO or “Kiss and Ride”) on the west side of Aukland Road due to ongoing Metrolinx construction of the Kipling transit hub. The TTC is also starting to build a new parking lot in that area.

TTC passengers may temporarily use the St. Albans Road entrance, on street level on the south side of St. Albans Rd, as the new temporary Kiss and Ride location.

GO Transit is advising passengers that the construction affects how you access Kipling GO Station.

• Use the TTC’s south parking lot off Munster Avenue to access the train platform and GO station building;
• Elevator access to the north or the south side of the station is unavailable. If you require an elevator, head to Dixie GO Station to board the train.

GO says, “Later this year a new permanent Kiss and Ride along with an elevator, located northeast of the new bus terminal is expected to open. Two new elevators connecting to the train platform are also expected to open later this year.”
