The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) is allowing the public to step foot on a Scarborough RT train one last time as part of a public memorial service for Line 3 this weekend.
"This is a difficult farewell for all those who relied on the Scarborough RT," Mayor Olivia Chow said in a news release.
Officials said by November, eight bus routes will run through Kennedy Station, "eliminating" commuters' need to transfer. In the long run, officials said buses will run in a designated lane along the Line 3 corridor until Line 2's east subway extension opens., a month before the TTC's farewell ceremony.
"In biggest city, we have a train derailing, and I don't think it's any surprise that it happened in Scarborough," he said, pointing to years of inadequate and antiquated transit options in the city's former easterly borough.
