High Park Station - Easier Access

For background information, please visit the project page

What we are doing and why?

The TTC’s Easier Access Program is making subway stations accessible. The TTC is building elevators at High Park Station to make it accessible for everyone by mid-2025*.

*subject to weather, unforeseen events

The project will create a barrier-free path from the main entrance to all levels of the station including installation of:

•         Two elevators to access eastbound and westbound platforms

•         Automatic sliding station entry doors

•         Improved signage

•         CCTV – Security cameras along the accessible pathway

•         New entrance structure on Quebec Avenue including accessible sliding doors at the main entrance

Traffic and pedestrian details

• During Phases 1 and 2, the northbound lane and east sidewalk will be closed in front of the Quebec Avenue station entrance.
• Access to the station will be maintained via Parkview Gardens or High Park Avenue entrance.
• The Quebec Avenue entrance of High Park Station needs to be closed until the mid-2025 to facilitate safe construction.

Noise, vibration and Work Hours: 

Noise, dust and vibration associated with construction can be expected with this work. Efforts will be made to keep levels to a minimum.

Majority of the work will take place between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., Monday to Friday, and on Saturday after 9 a.m., with work after hours and on Sunday after 9 a.m.  if required. As permitted, some overnight work will be required during the course of this project for safety and efficiency.

Overnight work is scheduled, as part of the plans to make High Park Station accessible. Noise associated with construction can be expected with this work, however crews will monitor levels and make efforts to keep them to a minimum.

What to expect

Construction trucks, equipment and site staff will be present in the general area.

Transit Service

Subway and bus service at the station will be maintained throughout construction.
