In February 2021, the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) recommended the closure of Line 3 in November 2023 and its replacement by bus service until the completion of the Scarborough extension of Line 2 Bloor–Danforth.[3][4] However, this station permanently closed following a derailment on July 24, 2023, after which the TTC decided not to reopen Line 3 service.[1]
