This commission operates all of Toronto's public transit systems, including subways, buses and streetcars. There are essentially three subway lines: the Bloor-Danforth line runs east-west across the city, while the Yonge and University-Spadina lines, though linked, are really two north-south lines meeting in a horseshoe at Union Station. Designated waiting areas are located on all subway platforms for your safety. There is 24 hour bus service on major routes. Cash fare: CAD2.25 adults; CAD1.50 students and seniors with ID; CAD0.50 children. Review © 2007, Wcities |

There are also shops, restaurants and information kiosks in both of Canada's official languages as well as dozens of others. The airport is surrounded by a full complement of first-rate hotels including the Sheraton Gateway, Airport Hilton, and Toronto Airport Marriott.

65 Front Street West Toronto, ON M5J 1E6 Canada +1 416 366 7788 (Travellers' Aid Society) http://www.city.toronto.on.ca/... |
This imposing and majestic building takes up an entire city block and was designed in the same grand style as the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris by a team of architects from a Montreal firm. Construction began in 1913 but was delayed for years due to the First World War until it opened in 1927. Today, Union Station is still the largest, busiest and most opulent in Canada. In 1996, over 24 million passengers walked through its doors. Six main tracks starting at Bathurst Street service the station where trains meet from the west and the north. GO commuter trains, VIA trains and AM Track trains all move through the station picking up and dropping off passengers. In 1967, GO Train service began as a single rail line along the lake and now its seven-corridor network serves 5 million people in an 8,000 square kilomotre area. The only tricky thing about this station is that there is really no public parking right by the station, so plan ahead. Review © 2007, Wcities |
