Royal Winter Fair: TTC detours, starting October 31



The 100th annual Royal Winter Agricultural Fair takes place in Exhibition Place from Tuesday, November 4 until Sunday, November 13.

To avoid delays as organizers set up and dismantle exhibits for the event — and during the event itself — the TTC is detouring buses along these routes:

  • 29C Dufferin; and
  • 329 Dufferin overnight.
