This weekend on the TTC

This Sat., Aug. 13 and Sun., Aug. 14, there will be no subway service on the portion of Line 1 between Lawrence and St Clair stations due to Metrolinx construction of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT (ECLRT). 

Shuttle buses will run, stopping at each station along the route. TTC staff will be on hand to direct customers to shuttle boarding and offloading locations. All stations will remain open for people to load their PRESTO card, purchase PRESTO Tickets, or connect to surface routes. In addition to the shuttles, the 97 Yonge bus will be available as an alternative during the closure.

As Lawrence Station is not yet accessible, customers travelling southbound on Line 1 who require an accessible connection should exit the train at York Mills Station and see any TTC customer service employee for assistance.

Single-track operation between Wilson and Lawrence West stations

Also on Sat., Aug. 13 and Sun., Aug. 14, trains on Line 1 between Wilson and Lawrence West stations will alternate use of the southbound track to accommodate maintenance work on the northbound track.

The TTC will operate a subway shuttle train between Wilson and Lawrence West stations. The subway shuttle train will run on the southbound track, while repair work is carried out on the northbound track.

If travelling to or between Wilson, Yorkdale and Lawrence West stations, customers will need to do the following:

If travelling southbound:

• disembark from the southbound subway train at Wilson Station
• board the subway shuttle train between Wilson and Lawrence West stations. This shuttle train will also stop at Yorkdale Station
• at Lawrence West Station, board a southbound train to continue their journey

If travelling northbound:

• disembark from the northbound subway train at Lawrence West Station

• cross to the other platform to board the subway shuttle train between Lawrence West and Wilson stations. This shuttle train will also stop at Yorkdale Station
• at Wilson Station, cross to the other platform and board a northbound train to continue their journey

Customers travelling on the University side of Line 1 may experience longer than normal travel and wait times. The TTC recognizes this is inconvenient and encourages customers to plan ahead and leave themselves extra time.

Additional TTC staff will be available at Wilson, Yorkdale and Lawrence West stations to assist customers. All three stations will remain open for people to load their PRESTO card, purchase PRESTO Tickets, or connect to surface routes.

Customers who require Wheel-Trans service can speak with any TTC customer service staff member for assistance.

Bay and Sherbourne stations will be closed. All other stations will remain open for people to load their PRESTO card, purchase PRESTO Tickets or connect to surface routes.
