TTC track work on portion of Line 2 this weekend

This weekend, Dec. 5-6, there will be no subway service on Line 2 between St George and Keele stations only as the TTC conducts maintenance work in the area, including replacing track switches near Ossington and Christie stations.

This is the final planned closure of the year, with no further closures planned until March 2016.

Maintaining subway infrastructure in a state-of-good-repair is critical to ensuring a safe, reliable transit system. While the TTC does much of its maintenance work on the subway at the conclusion of service each night, it also requires weekend closures to complete improvements to infrastructure and signals, such as automatic train control.

A frequent shuttle bus service will operate between St George and Keele stations. Christie Station will be closed, but all other stations will be open for the sale of fares and for connecting bus and streetcar service.

Wheel-Trans vehicles will be available for customers who require accessible transit. Customers can speak with any uniformed TTC employee at any station to make use of this service.

Regular subway service will resume on Mon., Dec. 7 at 6 a.m. The TTC appreciates the public’s patience and understanding.
