Service Changes For March 2011

6 Bay

Service change - Union Station Second Platform construction - Service change effective February 13

  • With the beginning of construction at Bay and Front for the Union Station Second Platform Project, various lane closures will increase traffic congestion.  The Bay route will be adjusted by adding running time to the route, and by cutting back the short turn service now operating to Queen’s Quay and Yonge (6A) to the Dundas short turn (6B) during the PM peak.  The AM peak short turn already operates only to Dundas.

  • One bus will be added to the route during the AM peak, midday and early evening service weekdays, and on weekend daytime periods.

  • Headways are unchanged except during the PM peak when the combined service north of Dundas drops from 5’15″ to 4’30″, but from Dundas to Queen’s Quay it widens from 5’15″ to 9’00″.

  • This change is expected to last for three years.

24D Victoria Park

Service change - Service change effective February 14

  • The northbound trip leaving Victoria Park Station at 9:56pm with a return trip southbound at 11:01pm will now operate only to Steeles Avenue.

41 Keele and 107 Keele North

Service reliability improvement - Service change effective February 13

  • Road construction at York University requires a considerable addition to the running time, and a route diversion is already in place.  From one to three buses will be added at various times on 41 Keele to maintain the pre-construction headways.  On 107 Keele North, one or two buses will be added.

  • These changes are expected to last until early May.
