The TTC has announced that it is detouring buses due to (City of) “Toronto Water construction” from 9 p.m. Monday, May 16 until 4 a.m. Tuesday, May 17 and continuing overnight nightly.
The transit agency hasn’t specified where construction is occurring, but it’s likely on King Street West between Atlantic Avenue and Shaw Street.
The TTC is detouring buses along these routes, while the work zone blocks the street:
- 63 Ossington; and
- 304 / 504C King buses.
Toronto Water construction on Strachan Avenue and the resulting TTC detours continue overnight nightly until May 22 (4 a.m.).
The TTC continues to replace streetcars along the 304 King overnight and 504A King routes with buses. The buses operate due the ongoing City of Toronto / TTC project to replace the streetcar tracks and improve the street infrastructure at the intersection of Queen Street West / King Street West / The Queensway / Roncesvalles Avenue.
