  • 913 Scarborough Centre Station - Centennial College

September 4, 2018

As part of the TTC’s rebranding and expansion of its Express Bus Network services, service on the new 913 PROGRESS EXPRESS is introduced to supplement and replace peak directional service on the 134C PROGRESS branch, operating between Scarborough Centre Station on the SCARBOROUGH RT and Centennial College. This service also replicates the former peak period service, the 171 PROGRESS EAST from 2000.

In the morning peak, northbound buses route east of Triton Road from Scarborough Centre Station, north on McCowan Road, east and south on Consilium Place, east and south on Corporate Drive, east and north on Progress Avenue, looping through the cul-de-sac in front of Centennial College. Express buses stop at Scarborough Centre Station, Triton Road at McCowan Road, Markham Road, Roadway to Centennial College and Centennial College Progress Campus.

In the afternoon peak, southbound buses operate via Centennial College, west on Progress, then north and west on Corporate Drive, south on Consilium Place and Grangeway Avenue, west on Bushby Drive, north on McCowan Road, and west on Triton Road to Scarborough Centre Station. Express buses stop at Centennial College Progress Campus, Progress Avenue, Markham Road, McCowan Road (McCowan RT Station) and Scarborough Centre Station.

Service operates out of Malvern Garage. All counter-peak trips continues to operate as 134C.

March 23, 2020

As is other TTC express services, service on the 913 PROGRESS EXPRESS is suspended indefinitely due to the closure of the Centennial College Progress campus amidst of the global COVID-19 pandemic affecting the TTC and the city itself. Buses on this route were reallocated to the local 134C PROGRESS service.

September 8, 2020

With the new academic year resuming after a six-month hiatus due to the pandemic, service resumes on the 913 PROGRESS EXPRESS route.

At the same time, coincident with the opening of the new terminal on Centennial College’s Progress campus, buses on this route are rerouted to a new path.

February 16, 2021

The routing on the 913 PROGRESS EXPRESS is adjusted to travel on Progress Avenue in both directions in all periods of operation, to provide customers with faster travel. No changes to the schedules or the service levels on this route, and no stop changes will be made. The routing is previously similar to the local 171 PROGRESS EAST route from 1993 to 2001.

March 24, 2023

Service is suspended on the 913 PROGRESS EXPRESS after the end of operations on this date. As LINE 3 SCARBOROUGH is set to be decommissioned by that Fall and with modifications to the Scarborough Centre station bus terminal is underway, service on this route is temporarily replaced the following Monday by the extension of the 985D SHEPPARD EAST EXPRESS to Centennial College operating on the same route.

September 5, 2023

With construction completed, service on the 913 PROGRESS EXPRESS resumes as it was in February 2023. This route will continue to operate until the temporary bus lanes on Kennedy (northbound) and Midland (southbound) are completed by November.

November 17, 2023.

Last day of operation. Service is replaced by the 903 KENNEDY STATION-SCARBOROUGH EXPRESS the following Sunday, operating from Kennedy station to Centennial College via Scarborough Centre station.
