To reduce congestion at Finch West station, buses on this route are rerouted to travel via north on Keele, east and south on Tangier’s Road, and west on the bus terminal roadway to terminate and recover in the terminal driveway. Southbound service starts from here, but the first in-service stop on Keele Street at Finch Avenue West remains unchanged.

Officially, due to renovations at Keele station closing the bus terminal there, service on this route is supposed to be extended south of the station to allow the buses to turn around. Southbound buses operate over the normal route to Keele station, letting passengers out on the street, and then deadhead via south on Parkside Drive, east on Howard Park Avenue, north on Roncesvalles Avenue and west on Bloor Street West to King Street. It is anticipated that this change will continue until autumn. Of course, with service suspended due to COVID-19, this change doesn’t happen.
