      From July 14 to August 11, the 505 Dundas streetcar will divert in both directions via McCaul St., College St., and Bathurst St. In addition, from July 14 to August 30, the 510 Spadina streetcar will be replaced by buses with the following service adjustments:

      July 14 – 28
      • 510 Spadina buses will operate through the Spadina and Dundas intersection, with one lane open in each direction.

      July 28 – August 11
      • The intersection at Spadina and Dundas will be closed to all traffic. The 510 Spadina bus service will split into two portions: The north portion will operate between Spadina Station and Baldwin St. The south portion will operate between Sullivan St. and Queens Quay. Customers travelling the length of the route must transfer buses by walking between Baldwin St. and Sullivan St.

      August 11 – 30
      • On Spadina Ave., one southbound lane and one northbound lane will re-open, allowing 510 Spadina buses to operate through the intersection.
      • The 505 Dundas streetcar will resume its normal routing through the intersection.

      The TTC will be retrofitting the streetcar platform at Spadina Station during this time to accommodate the new streetcars. Customers boarding 510 Spadina replacement buses can do so at street level.

      The 510 Spadina streetcar returns to normal service on Sunday, August 31 with the introduction of the new streetcar.

      Businesses and shops will remain open in the area during construction. Please support local businesses.

        This is a first step in their effort to elevate the voices of children and youth with special needs.

        In partnership with the Youth Advisory Committee, they have created a website that will allow children and youth to tell their story. They want to hear:
        •What the world would look like if all children with special needs were supported to realize their full potential?
        •How would the world be different than it is right now, if that happened?
        •What would you like Irwin Elman, the Provincial Advocate for Children and Youth, to know about how to make the lives of children and youth with special needs living in Ontario better?

        Children and youth who are able, are encouraged to share their stories directly using the I Have Something to Say website.

        Children and youth who might like or need to communicate in ways other than writing are encouraged to do so -a piece of art, videos, songs, e-books — whatever works best for you and inspires you to express themselves.

        Many children and youth will need help to raise their voices. We are counting on you to support them.
