The TTC is closing Line 1 Yonge - University subway between Finch and Eglinton stations earlier than usually, Monday, June 9 until Thursday, June 12. Line 1 subway trains operate only between Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and Eglinton stations after 11 p.m. those evenings.
Shuttle buses partially replace subway service. The buses drop off or pick up passengers at stops near each station on the closed section of the line. TTC staff are available in each to station to direct you to the shuttle-bus boarding and offloading locations.
(Or, consider a shuttle-bus alternative.)
Most stations on this section of Line 1 remain open, so you can load PRESTO fare cards, buy PRESTO tickets and connect to TTC buses, streetcars and Line 4 Sheppard subway trains or to GO Transit and York Region Transit buses. However, North York Centre and Lawrence stations are closed.
Since the bus terminal at Lawrence Station is closed, board connecting buses at temporary stops on Lawrence Avenue West, instead of in the station bus terminal:
- westbound at Lorindale Avenue (one block west of Yonge Street); and
- eastbound at Yonge Street.
Finch and Eglinton are accessible stations. The TTC is assigning two Wheel-Trans vehicles to operate along Yonge Street between the two stations. Speak to any TTC staff member for directions or help to locate Wheel-Trans stops at or near each station.
While this section of Line 1 is closed, TTC crews are maintaining the tracks. The TTC also likely continues working on the Easier Access elevator project at Lawrence Station.
According to a TTC news release, “While the TTC does most subway maintenance after service each night, it continues to require weekend and early weeknight closures to complete critical infrastructure and state-of-good-repair work.”
