TTC revises routes and services, June 19



Starting Sunday, June 19, the TTC is revising service along several routes to adjust frequency, improve reliability, re-introduce or cancel seasonal service or match service levels to passenger ridership levels.   According to the transit agency, it “remains focused on restoring pre-pandemic system-wide investment in service. By the end of the year, [it] will be investing as much into… bus, streetcar, and subway services as [it] did before the pandemic. Service increases will be addressed on a route-by-route basis and may vary according to ridership levels.”

Highlights include:

  • introducing new seasonal service into High Park along the 30B High Park route;
  • temporarily removing service into Exhibition Place along the 29 Dufferin and 929 Dufferin express routes due to the large number of events taking place in the venue during summer and early fall; and
  • revising the path and decreasing service hours along the 174 Ontario Place - Exhibition route due to the large number of events taking place in the Exhibiton Place during summer and early fall.

Construction projects continue to affect service along many routes:

  This project is ending:

  • City construction on Broadview Avenue between Danforth Avenue and Gerrard Street East: streetcar service along the 504B King and 505 Dundas routes returns to Broadview Station.


Due to fewer riders boarding buses resulting from social distancing and lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic, the TTC continues to suspend service along these express routes:

  • 141 Downtown / Mt Pleasant express;
  • 142 Downtown / Avenue Rd express;
  • 143 Downtown / Beach express;
  • 144 Downtown / Don Valley express; and
  • 145 Downtown / Humber Bay express.

The TTC also continues to suspend service along these routes due to the pandemic:

  • 176 Mimico GO shuttle;
  • 508 Lake Shore.

The TTC continues to suspend service along this route due to Metrolinx construction of the Eglinton Crosstown light rail transit line:

  • 103 Mt Pleasant North.

As a pilot project, the TTC continues to combine route 503 service with the former 502 Downtowner route, as it has since September 9, 2019.

Transit agencies often interline buses along two or more routes with a common terminal to save resources — human resources, meaning drivers, and physical resources, meaning vehicles. For example, after a southbound buses along the 30 High Park route arrives in High Park Station bus terminal, it then proceeds northbound along the 189 Stockyards route. After completing a round trip along route 189, it returns to High Park Station and then proceeds northward along route 30.
