Rogers acquired the cellular network in the subway system from BAI Canada earlier this year and has been working to upgrade it.
The service to all carriers comes after months of tense back-and-forth negotiations between Rogers and rivals Bell and Telus over the best technical approach, as well as financial terms, for providing the coverage.
The federal government had set a deadline of Tuesday for all passengers on the TTC subway system to have cellular connectivity, regardless of their carrier. It has also set a Dec. 20 deadline for the companies to negotiate commercial agreements to provide service on the subway over the long term.
