[URBAN NOTE] "No subway service between Keele, Ossington after 10 p.m. for repairs"

[rfmcdonald]

Transit Toronto reported on last night's repairs at Dundas West and tonight's.

The TTC is closing the 2 Bloor - Danforth subway line between Keele and Ossington Stations this evening, Wednesday, October 1, starting at 10 p.m.

While the line is closed, TTC crews will start permanently repairing the subway tunnel that was damaged yesterday Tuesday, September 30, near Dundas West Station.

The TTC will operate more than 50 shuttle buses between Ossington and Keele Stations to replace subway service. It’s assigning customer-service staff to stations across the line to help passengers get to their destinations.

Normal subway service resumes at 6 a.m. tomorrow.

This evening, crews will get the tunnel ready for a final, permanent repair, tomorrow evening Thursday, October 2 during normal maintenance hours after regular service has ended — the TTC doesn’t expect it will have to close the subway early tomorrow. They’ll remove the pile that has punctured the tunnel next week.

It was a lovely night for walking, and will be lovely again.
