"Metrolinx is working with the TTC [Toronto Transit Commission] to prepare for the start of revenue service on December 7, 2025, he wrote. A spokesperson for the TTC, which took control of the new line earlier this month following a 30-day trial run, said in an email that they could not confirm an opening date. CBC Toronto has also reached out to Metrolinx to confirm, but has yet to receive a response."
"Major construction on the Finch West LRT, or Line 6, started in 2019 and wrapped up last fall, about four years after initially expected. The line will run along Finch Avenue W., primarily above ground, with 18 stops from Humber College to Finch West, where it connects with Line 1. (Metrolinx) Mayor Olivia Chow did not confirm an opening date when asked at Sunday's Santa Claus parade in downtown Toronto, but did say it would hopefully [be] before the Christmas holiday."
Major readiness milestones for the Finch West LRT have been achieved and Metrolinx is working with the TTC to prepare for revenue service on December 7, 2025. The TTC, which took control after a 30-day trial, did not confirm an opening date when asked. Major construction began in 2019 and finished last fall, about four years behind schedule. The 11-kilometre, primarily above-ground Line 6 will have 18 stops between Humber College and Finch West, connecting with Line 1. Mayor Olivia Chow said the line would hopefully open before the Christmas holiday. The line is expected to carry more than 51,000 passengers each weekday.
