MiWay is revising service along these routes: 5 Dixie ; 31 Ogden; 51 Tomken.

5 Dixie

Ontario Ministry of Transportation contractors continue a project to widen

• the Queen Elizabeth Way between Cawthra Road and Etobicoke Creek.

During the project, the contractors are also replacing the bridge carrying Dixie Road over the QEW. Construction began in May 2022 and likely continues for five years, meaning as late as until July 31, 2026.

Since Friday, September 19, the work zone for the project has blocked the westbound lanes of

• South Service Road between Ogden Avenue and Dixie Road

and MiWay has been detouring buses along thie

Thursday, October 3, the Ministry expanded the work zone to block northbound lanes on Dixie Road. MiWay revised the detour path.

Starting Monday, December 24, MiWay is making the detour the permanent path for buses along the route.

Southbound buses operate along their regular path to Dixie Road beside Dixie Outlet Mall, then detour:

southward along Dixie Road to Lakeshore Road East,
resuming their regular path eastward along Lakeshore East.

Southbound buses skip their regular stops

• in Dixie Outlet Mall terminal,
• on South Service Road East across from the Dixie Outlet Mall north access road and Haig Boulevard,
• on Ogden Avenue beyond South Service Road East, across from Strathy Avenue, south of Srtathy Avenue, at Halliday, Atwater and Pelham avenues and Lakeshore Road East and
• on Lakeshore Road East across from Strathy Avenue, at Hydro Road and across from Haig Boulevard and Orchard and Dixie roads.

Instead, southbound buses drop off or pick up passengers at a temporary stop

• on Dixie Road beside Dixie Outlet Mall.
