There will be no subway service between St. George and Broadview stations on August 26 due to bridge work on the Prince Edward Viaduct.
There will also be no subway service on Line 3 between McCowan and Kennedy stations on August 27 due to life extension, track, and infrastructure work.
Shuttle buses will operate between these stations during the closures.
