Changes are coming to TTC routes in February with the most significant being on the streetcar network. I provided an overview of the streetcar changes in a previous article, but the details of headways and running times are in the spreadsheet linked below.
On the bus network, there are several tweaks to running times and headways.
Extra running time for Metrolinx construction projects will be provided on 36 Finch West, 63 Ossington and 71 Runnymede.
Evening service on the 12 Kingston Road bus will be modified so that trips after 10:30 pm on weekdays and 5:30 pm on weekends run via the 12B routing along Kingston Road instead of dodging north to serve Variety Village.
Service on 121 Fort York-Esplanade will lose one bus during weekdays all day except the AM peak, and weekend evenings. This route has chronically erratic service that affects demand, but that is not addressed in the change.
Minor service cuts and/or running time adjustments will widen headways on:
- 17 Birchmount (AM peak)
- 37 Islington (Midday weekdays)
- 40 Junction (Saturday morning)
- 79 Scarlett Road (PM peak)
- 111 East Mall (AM peak and midday)
Minor improvements and/or running time adjustments will shorten headways on:
- 40 Junction (Sunday afternoon)
- 42 Cummer (Weekdays)
- 102 Markham Road (AM peak)
On 1 Yonge-University, all crew change will now occur at Wilson Station rather than being split between Wilson and Eglinton Stations due to pending construction at the latter.
