DESCRIPTION

Join us to learn more about what it takes to build new transit!

Our walk will take you along the rail corridor in Riverside and Leslieville, where Ontario Line trains will run on their own dedicated tracks, alongside GO and VIA trains.

We’ll share details about upgrades underway along the corridor, including redeveloping the rail bridges at Queen Street, Dundas Street and Logan Avenue.

The Ontario Line will be a 15.6-kilometre subway line that will make it faster and easier to travel within Toronto and beyond.

The line will bring 15 new stations to the city and will run from Exhibition Place, through the heart of downtown, all the way to Flemingdon Park.
