New:

  • 8 Broadview, 62 Mortimer, 87 Cosburn and 322 Coxwell, will not be operating from Broadview Station.

Continuing:

 

  • 100 Flemingdon Park is diverting to Pape Station. Customers should travel on Line 2 to Pape Station to take the 100 Flemingdon Park, which will travel along Pape Avenue to its regular route. Once the 100 Flemingdon Park arrives at Pape Station it will continue south as the 72A Pape to King Street East and Parliament Street.
  • 504 King and 505 Dundas service will continue to not operate out of Broadview Station.
  • Customers can take the 72A Pape bus southbound from Pape Station to King and Parliament streets, to connect to a westbound 504 King streetcar.
  • People travelling to Hennick Bridgepoint Hospital can travel the following ways:transfer to a 506 Carlton Streetcar from Gerrard Street.
    • From Sherbourne Station (accessible), take the 75 Sherbourne bus. Transfer to an eastbound 506 Carlton streetcar at Sherbourne/Carlton/Gerrard. Customers can exit at Gerrard Street East and Blackburn Street, or Gerrard Street East and Broadview Avenue.

    • 121 River-Esplanade buses will continue to operate near the hospital, stopping on Gerrard Street East west of Broadview Avenue.
  • Customers heading downtown, may want to consider taking Line 2 to Bloor-Yonge and going south on Line 1 to their destination.

72A Pape service extended

  • The 72A Pape will be extended via Queen Street East to King Street East and Parliament Street, replacing the 504/505 bus service on Broadview Avenue north of Gerrard Street East.
  • We’ve increased service on the 72A Pape. Customers can take the 72A Pape bus to connect to the 504 King streetcar at King Street and Parliament Street.

501B Queen replacement bus continues

  • To improve access to westbound 501B Queen bus service east of River Street, 501B Queen buses will operate in both directions between Dundas Street East and Broadview Avenue and Queen Street East and River Street. Eastbound buses will continue to terminate on Gerrard at St Matthews, while westbound buses will depart from St Matthews and resume regular routing via Gerrard Street East, River Street, Dundas Street East, Broadview Avenue back and to Queen Street East. 

121 River-Esplanade service change

  • The 121 River-Esplanade will not operate on Jack Layton Way due to turn restrictions on Broadview Avenue north of Gerrard Street East during construction. Eastbound 121 River-Esplanade buses will divert via Dundas Street East, Broadview Avenue and Gerrard Street East to the Gerrard and St Matthews intersection. Westbound 121 River-Esplanade buses will depart from St Matthews and continue along Gerrard Street East to resume regular routing.

Broadview Station will remain open for subway service.

  • What work is being done at Broadview Station and why? 

    The streetcar tracks on Broadview Avenue from Danforth Avenue to Gerrard Street East will be renewed from July 4 through the Fall.

    The streetcar track infrastructure at Broadview Station including Broadview Avenue and Erindale Avenue in front of the station, will also be renewed.

    The purpose for this construction is to bring the aging track to a state of good repair. These improvements will help us continue to run service for the years to come.

  • Why can the 504/304 King and 505 Dundas replacement buses not continue to run service? 

    The 504/304 King and 505 Dundas replacement bus service cannot continue to operate on Broadview Avenue once the construction starts, because only one northbound lane will be open and it will be too narrow along the construction zone for buses to travel through safely.

  • How does this construction work effect Wheel-Trans service? 

    Wheel-Trans service out of Broadview Station will remain unchanged.

  • What type of noise will we hear during the construction? 

    During all track related construction, there will be temporary noise, dust and vibration.

    Work will take place 24 hours, 7 days a week. Excavation activities and heavy breaking will be carried out at various times throughout the day. All concrete breaking activities will occur between 7 a.m. and 11 p.m. Concrete breaking work is the most disruptive and will typically last the first 1-2 days for each phase of the construction.

    Around-the-clock work during rail installation by TTC is required to preserve the integrity and quality of new rail and concrete. Overnight rail work by TTC may consist of moving new rail into position, rail installation and rail welding / grinding.
