Toronto Transit Commission accessibility information


Accessibility for people with disabilities on the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) system is incomplete but improving. Most of the Toronto subway system was built before wheelchair access was a requirement under the Ontarians with Disabilities Act (ODA). However, all subway stations built since 1996 are equipped with elevators, and elevators have been installed in 44 stations built before 1996 (including 1 station that was expanded in 2002, Sheppard–Yonge). Over 75 percent (54 of 70) of Toronto's subway stations are accessible.[1] The original plan was to make all stations accessible by 2025; however, a few stations might not be accessible until 2026.[2]

All TTC trains offer level boarding for customers with wheelchairs and other accessibility needs. Buses, streetcars and trains have priority seating and dedicated wheelchair areas onboard.[3]

In 2014, the TTC began introducing new low-floor vehicles on its streetcar network. These accessible vehicles ultimately replaced the ageing, non-accessible Canadian and Articulated Light Rail Vehicle streetcars by December 29, 2019.[4] In December 2015, the TTC retired the last of its lift-equipped high-floor buses, which were introduced in 1996, making all TTC bus routes low-floor accessible.[5]
