Access Hubs

Formerly referred to as Mobility Transfer Hubs, Access Hubs will provide customers with a more comfortable place to wait when transferring between Wheel-Trans and other TTC vehicles. For many Wheel-Trans customers, weather and time-of day can have an impact on their ability to use conventional transit. The Access Hubs will be dry and well-lit; spacious enough for multiple mobility devices; have automatic doors and provide generous seating.

There will be 16 Hubs across the City and currently 14 are scheduled for construction in 11 key locations over the next several months. These hubs, which are partially funded by the Public Transit Infrastructure Fund, will support our Family of Services model, by making connections to conventional transit easier for Wheel-Trans customers.

What we are doing

As a part of the TTC’s ongoing Access Hub program, bus stops at select transfer points throughout the city are being upgraded to become more accessible.

While construction of all below-listed Access Hubs is complete, they will not be open for public use or as Family of Services transfer-points until necessary City inspections and TTC reviews are complete. Access Hubs currently available for public use: Kipling and Dixon SW and NW *NEW*, Meadowvale Loop and Humber College.

Please check back for updates as we continue to open the Hubs. Please note, necessary inspections of Access Hubs may be delayed due to COVID-19.
