Okay, at least it's not winter. As you probably know by now, the TTC is running shuttle service between Spadina and Union, which means extra annoyance if you're trying to commute to and from home. Of course, at least it's sunny the next few days so I guess you could walk , right?
You can see the picture below, they are tearing up part of the track, the crews seemed to be out of service as of 2 p.m. Anyone know how long this will take?
Update, we spotted this and a reader also tipped us off. It'll take a week
Starting 6:00 am, Monday, May 25 until 5:00 am, Saturday, May 30, the TTC will conduct track repairs on Queens Quay West, from east of Spadina Loop to the Harbourfront tunnel. During the track repairs 509 HARBOURFRONT streetcars will run between Exhibition Loop and Spadina Loop. 510 SPADINA streetcars will run between Spadina Station and Spadina Loop.
A temporary replacement bus service will be provided on Queens Quay between Bathurst Street and Bay Street. At Union Station, customers must board the replacement buses on the west side of Bay Street, south of Front Street.
Customers will require paper transfers to transfer between the temporary buses and the subway.
According to the bus driver I asked, about a week.
