The TTC Is Closing 4 Subway Stations Again This Weekend So Say Goodbye To A Smooth Ride

If you thought you could get to your weekend plans on time and avoid the horrible weather, think again because the TTC might not be as convenient as you're expecting this weekend.

On Thursday, the TTC announced that it will be suspending service across four subway stations on Line One this weekend "to accommodate work on the Eglinton Crosstown Light Rail Transit construction project."

The TTC subway closures will happen between Lawrence and St. Clair stations on April 2 and 3, with no subway service to Eglinton or Davisville stations. But don't fret, you'll still be able to get to your destination — just leave lots of time for delays. The TTC will be running shuttle buses.

Nevertheless, all stations will remain open for people looking to put money on their PRESTO cards and connect to surface routes.

If you thought things couldn't get less convenient, hold onto your hats because the TTC announced that on Sunday, April 3, part of Line Two is taking the morning off and will start service at noon.

"Subway service on Line 2 between St George and Broadview stations will start by 12 p.m. on Sunday, April 3 for Prince Edward Viaduct beam replacement," the TTC stated.

Additionally, Bay and Sherbourne stations will be closed, while other stations will be open for fare purchases and surface routes.

Oh, and there will be another closure on Line One between Lawrence and St. Clair the following weekend, on April 9 and 10, to accommodate the Eglinton Crosstown Light Rail Transit again, so keep your eyes open for any updates.

TTC riders, don't forget — masks are still required when riding public transit. Even though many COVID-19 restrictions and mask mandates have eased, these changes do not yet apply to public transit settings.
