The Toronto Transit Commission has unveiled renderings and new details for its billion-dollar Bloor-Yonge station renovation, including plans to install platform-edge doors and increase capacity by building a new platform.
The Bloor-Yonge expansion project includes the construction of a new second platform for Line 2 eastbound traffic. The line’s existing platform will be reconfigured and dedicated to westbound passengers. Both Line 1 passenger platforms will also be expanded to accommodate additional traffic.
a feature that advocates have been calling on for years amid overcrowding and a string of subway deathsThe TTC said it will also install infrastructure to enable future platform-edge doors for Line 2 platforms. Unlike Line 1, Line 2 does not yet have the automatic train control signal system, a prerequisite for platform-edge doors. The barriers cannot operate until the new signal system is installed, the transit agency noted.
