Lawrence Station Easier Access Enhancements:
The TTC’s Easier Access Program is making subway stations accessible. Construction at Lawrence Station is scheduled for completion by mid-2026.
Lawrence Station will be receiving two new elevators to improve customer safety and convenience. The work to support this upgrade includes hydraulic, electrical, mechanical, structural and architectural components, along with the detailed project coordination aspects related to renovations.
