TTC announces extra service for St. Patrick’s Day Parade, upcoming service adjustments
The TTC is enhancing subway service this Sun., Mar. 15 for the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade and Race. With no planned subway closures on Sunday, the TTC is the fastest, most convenient, and eco-friendly way to get to and from the St Patrick’s Day festivities safely.
Extra service will run on Line 1 Yonge-University and Line 2 Bloor-Danforth, and additional TTC staff will be on hand at key subway stations along the parade route to help with wayfinding and provide assistance as needed.
