GO adjusting service along the Kitchener line, September 21, 22

Sun, 20 Sep 2026 07:14:48 -0500

Metrolinx continues upgrading the 31 Kitchener line as part of the GO Expansion Program.

Due to the residual effects of last weekend’s construction, GO continues to adjust schedules for trains along the 31 Kitchener line, Monday, September 21 and Tuesday, September 22.

Monday, September 21:

Trains arrive in and leave stations as much as ten minutes earlier or later than usually.
The eastbound train that usually starts its trip Bramalea GO Station for Union Station at 9:56 a.m. won’t stop in Etobicoke North GO Station.
The westbound train that usually starts in Union at 4:05 p.m. for Bramalea won’t stop in Etobicoke North.

Tuesday, September 22:

Trains arrive in and leave stations as much as ten minutes earlier or later than usually.

Regular service resumes Wednesday, September 23.

Metrolinx and GO plan to accommodate more passengers and increase service along the Kitchener line, as part of their GO Expansion Program (formerly “regional express rail”).

No subway service, St Clair to College: September 19, 20

Sat, 19 Sep 2026 07:01:41 -0500

The TTC is closing Line 1 Yonge - University subway between Sheppard - Yonge and St Clair stations Saturday, September 19 and Sunday, September 20. Line 1 trains operate only between Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and College stations and between Finch and St Clair stations those days.

Shuttle buses partially replace subway service. The buses drop off or pick up passengers at stops near each station on the closed section of the line. TTC staff are available in each to station to direct you to the shuttle-bus boarding and offloading locations.

(Or, consider a shuttle-bus alternative.)

Most stations on the closed section of Line 1 remain open so you can pay fares, buy or load a PRESTO card or PRESTO ticket and connect to TTC buses and streetcars and Line 2 Bloor - Danforth trains. However Summerhill and Rosedale stations are closed. Note also that the TTC is also closing the Dundonald Street access to and from Wellesley Station after 11:59 p.m.

While this section of Line 1 is closed, TTC crews are maintaining the tracks.

According to a TTC news release, “While most subway maintenance is completed overnight when the system is closed, some larger projects require early nightly and weekend closures to allow crews safe and uninterrupted access to complete critical infrastructure improvements.”

The TTC is closing this section of Line 1 at least once more during September:

Monday, September 21 until Friday, September 25 — St Clair to College — close early — track work.

Shuttle-bus alternatives

Plan your trips on the subway ahead of time to avoid stress and crowds. Leave extra time in your schedule and expect longer travelling times those days.

While shuttle buses operate frequently, they will be crowded.

Regular TTC buses and streetcars provide less frequent, less direct, but, perhaps, less stressful alternatives. Consider travelling along the University branch, instead of the Yonge branch, to and from downtown Toronto and avoid the shuttle buses entirely. Or board buses along the 97 Yonge route to travel to and from stops on Yonge north of Davisville Station.

Ride buses or streetcars along routes serving streets north or south of the closure to reach stations on the University branch.

North of the closure area:

Buses along the 36 Finch West route and board the subway at Finch West Station, instead of Finch Station.
Buses along the 84 Sheppard West route and board the subway at Sheppard West Station, instead of Sheppard - Yonge Station.
Buses along the 96 Wilson or 165 Weston Rd North routes and board the subway at Wilson Station, instead of York Mills Station.
Buses along the 52 Lawrence West route and board the subway at Lawrence West Station, instead of Lawrence Station.
Buses along the 32 Eglinton West route and board the subway at Cedarvale Station, instead of Eglinton Station.

At the closure area:

Streetcars along the 512 St. Clair route and board the subway at St. Clair West Station, instead of St. Clair Station.
Trains along Line 2 Bloor - Danforth and board Line 1 Yonge - University at St. George Station, instead of Yonge Station.
Buses along the 506B Carlton route and board the subway at Queen’s Park Station, instead of College Station.

South of the closure area

Streetcars along the 506 Carlton route and board the subway at Queen’s Park Station, instead of TMU Station.
Streetcars along the 505 Dundas route and board the subway at St. Patrick Station, instead of TMU Station.
Streetcars along the 501 Queen route and board the subway at Osgoode Station, instead of near Queen Station.
Streetcars along the 504A / 504B King route and board the subway at St. Andrew Station, instead of King Station.

(You can also take another HSR bus to one of the three terminals — just show your game ticket to the bus operator and that’s your ticket to ride.)

GO adjusting service along the Kitchener line, September 14 to 17

Mon, 14 Sep 2026 00:00:01 -0500

Metrolinx continues upgrading the 31 Kitchener line as part of the GO Expansion Program.

Due to the residual effects of last weekend’s construction, GO is adjusting the schedules for some trains along the 31 Kitchener line from Monday, September 14 until Thursday, September 17.

Trains arrive in or leave stations as much as ten minutes earlier or later than usually.

The westbound train that starts its trip in Union Station at 9:34 a.m. for Kitchener GO Station doesn’t stop in Etobicoke North GO Station.

Metrolinx says it’s preparing for construction of the future Stockyards and Woodbine stations.

(The future Stockyards GO Station was formerly known as St. Clair - Old Weston Road GO Station.)

Crews are also conducting foundational work for a future second track and improving the corridor by installing culverts and utilities and improving signals.

Metrolinx and GO plan to accommodate more passengers and increase service along the Kitchener line, as part of their GO Expansion Program (formerly “regional express rail”).

Subway opens late, September 13: Broadview to St George

Sat, 12 Sep 2026 16:50:36 -0500

The TTC is delaying the start of service along Line 2 Bloor - Danforth subway between Broadview and St George stations this Sunday, September 13. All Line 2 trains operate only between Kennedy and Broadview stations and between Kipling and St George stations before 11 a.m. that day.

Shuttle buses partially replace subway service between the two stations, stopping on the street near stations on the closed section of the line.

(Or, consider a shuttle-bus alternative.)

Most stations on the closed section of Line 2 remain open so you can pay fares, buy or load a PRESTO card, PRESTO ticket or connect with buses, streetcars and Line 1 Yonge - University subway trains. However, Sherbourne and Bay stations are closed before 11 a.m. Note, also that the TTC is also closing the Yonge Street access to Line 2 at Bloor - Yonge Station

Although shuttle buses are accessible, extra Wheel-Trans service is also available between Broadview and St George stations. Ask staff in each station for information about Wheel-Trans service.

While this section of Line 2 is closed, City of Toronto contractors work under the Prince Edward Viaduct to replace beams.

]]>

Shuttle buses

(We’ve based this part of the post on information the TTC supplied during previous occasions that it closed the subway between Broadview and St George. Note that this is unofficial information. The TTC may decide to operate buses with a different service pattern this time.)

At Broadview Station, buses drop off passengers on Broadview Avenue beside the subway station entrance / exit. They then loop along Broadview, Erindale, Hurndale and Danforth Avenues. The buses pick up passengers on the north side of Danforth, before heading westward toward St George Station.

The shuttle buses operate along Danforth Avenue, the Prince Edward Viaduct and Bloor streets east and west. They drop off or pick up passengers at the intersections nearest to all other subway stations on the closed section of the line:

at Castle Frank Road, Sherbourne, Yonge and Bay Streets.

At St George Station, buses drop off passengers on St. George Street beside the station entrance / exit. They then loop along St. George, Prince Arthur Avenue and Bedford Road. The buses pick up passengers on the west side of Bedford beside the subway station entrance / exit, before heading eastward toward Broadview Station.

Shuttle-bus alternatives

One way that you can reduce the impact of the closure is by planning ahead, leaving earlier than usually and giving yourself more time to get to where you’re going.

Although shuttle buses replacing subway service will be frequent, they may also be crowded.

Regular TTC streetcars provide less frequent, less direct, but, perhaps, less stressful alternatives. Consider boarding streetcars at or east of the closure area to by-pass the crowds, if you’re travelling to and from downtown.

Board streetcars along the 504B King route at Broadview Station. Connect with Line 1 Yonge - University subway at King or St Andrew stations.
Board streetcars along the 505 Dundas route at Broadview Station. Connect with Line 1 Yonge - University subway at TMU or St Patrick stations.
Board streetcars along the 506 Carlton route at Main Street Station. Connect with Line 1 Yonge - University subway at College or Queen’s Park stations.
