The TTC is closing Line 1 Yonge - University subway between Osgoode and King stations earlier than usually Monday, January 30 until Thursday, February 2. Line 1 subway trains operate only between Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and Osgoode stations and between Finch and King stations after 11 p.m. those days.
Frequent shuttle buses partly replace subway service. The buses stop on-street near each of the stations on the closed section of the line.
All stations remain open so you can buy or pay for fares or connect to other TTC buses and streetcars, GO Transit trains and buses and UP Express trains.
Since King Station is not yet accessible, if you’re travelling southbound along the Yonge side of Line 1 and you require an accessible connection, exit the train at Queen Station and ask any TTC customer service employee for directions or help.
While this section of Line 1 is closed, TTC crews are maintaining the tunnel.
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.”
This is the first time this year that the TTC is closing part of its subway system.
