How To Navigate The Service Disruptions

Shuttle buses will operate along the normal subway route. Buses will stop at all the regular subway station stops, just outside the typical zone. Wheel-Trans will also be available to TTC riders requiring accessible service.

Since King is not an accessible station, commuters requiring an elevator should exit at Queen station and then contact a TTC employee for Wheel-Trans service.

Normal service will resume on Monday morning.
