The TTC is closing Line 1 Yonge - University earlier than usually between Spadina and King stations from Monday, September 13 until Thursday, September 16. Line 1 trains operate only between Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and Spadina stations and between Finch and King stations after 11 p.m. this week.
Frequent buses partly replace Line 1 subway service. The buses drop off or pick up passengers at stops on the street near each station on the closed section of the line.
Spadina, St George, St Andrew, Union and King Stations remain open so you can pay fares or connect to TTC buses and streetcars or GO Transit and UP Express trains. Museum, Queen’s Park, St Patrick and Osgoode stations are closed.
The Line 1 section of Spadina Station is not yet an accessible station. If you’re travelling southbound on the University side of Line 1 and need an accessible connection, exit the train at Dupont Station and ask any TTC customer service employee for help.
King Station is also not yet an accessible station. Similarly, if you’re travelling southbound on the Yonge side of Line 1 and need an accessible connection, exit the train at Queen Station and ask any TTC customer service employee for help.
While this part of Line 1 is closed, TTC crews are maintaining the tracks. According to a TTC news release, “While the TTC does most subway maintenance at the conclusion of service each night, it continues to require weekend and early weeknight closures to complete critical infrastructure and state-of-good-repair work as well as… signal upgrades.”
