Starting 4 a.m. Monday, May 4, the TTC is temporarily closing the Spadina Station bus terminal to install construction hoarding for the Spadina Station Streetcar Platform Extension project.
This project is part of the Line 2 Capacity Enhancement Program, which will allow Spadina Station to accommodate two streetcars at a time. The extension will help alleviate overcrowding and meet future ridership demands on the 510/310 streetcar route.
The transit agency is detouring buses along these routes, while the bus terminal is closed:
- 306B / 506B Carlton shuttle buses
- 127 Davenport.
This phase of construction ate Spadina Station and the resulting TTC detour continue until May 7 (4 a.m.)
Crews mostly work from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m., but may work overnight if necessary. Expect to hear noise, feel vibration and see dust resulting from construction. .
The work zone may restrict access to the laneway behind 320/326 Bloor Street West.
Crews maintain passenger access to Spadina Station.
