Starting on Sunday, the TTC says it will be increasing service on several bus routes following the completion of multiple major projects.
Seven routes will have increased capacity during busy travel periods due to ridership demand. These include 16 McCowan, 32 Eglinton West, 44 Kipling South, 63 Ossington, 94 Wellesley, 122 Graydon Hall and 129 McCowan North.
Bus and streetcar services will also be returning to Dufferin Gate Loop after the completion of the water main and streetcar track renewal on Springhurst Avenue.

The transit company added in a statement that it's also extending the early morning operating hours for the 329 Dufferin Night bus, which will now align with the start of subway service.
"This extension will provide customers with a transfer-free journey between Steeles Avenue West and Dufferin Gate Loop before subway service begins," the TTC said in its release.Â
Also starting on Sunday — for a few weeks before ending in February — the 504B King streetcars will be running between the Dufferin Gate and Distillery Loops. Then on Feb. 19, streetcars from Dufferin Gate Loop will be available through the 501A Queen route as construction starts on King Street West.
All regular bus service will resume at Broadview Station, including the 87 Cosburn and 100 Flemingdon Park routes.
