Recently, I was part of a dinner group hosted by the Star’s Corey Mintz that included TTC’s CEO Andy Byford.
A transcript of our conversation (somewhat edited) is on Corey’s site.

Queen East Construction News (Updated September 21)
Updated Friday, September 21
The TTC has announced that the 501 Queen service will revert to its normal routing between Broadview and Coxwell effective Monday, September 24. Service on Kingston Road will continue to be provided by buses for the remainder of the current schedule period.
Plans called for the 502 Downtowner to operate from Bingham Loop to Wolseley Loop at Bathurst Street, and the 503 Kingston Road will operate from Bingham to York & Wellington effective Tuesday, October 9 (the first weekday of the new schedule period).
For the next two weeks, we should see amazingly good service on the outer ends of the 501 Queen route because cars will have the extra running time for a diversion they are not taking. This will be an interesting point of comparison once the normal running times return with the October 7 schedules.
