Future OL Queen Station - hero image

Ontario Line

A new 15.6-km subway line in Toronto that will run from Exhibition Place, through downtown, all the way to Line 5 Eglinton at Don Mills Road.

Exhibition Station

Station upgrades at Exhibition Station will bring the Ontario Line and GO Transit rail network together under one roof.

This new Ontario Line connection will bring the subway system closer to many homes and businesses in the growing and vibrant Liberty Village community. It will connect to more than 17,000 jobs in the area and put more than 12,000 people within walking distance of the subway.

Infrastructure Ontario has also proposed a new transit-oriented community for this site, which will bring a vibrant, mixed-use community to the area that will put more housing, jobs, retail and engaging public spaces within easy reach of transit.
