Stop closing King St and detouring the 504 King streetcar for the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in rush hour now!

- The 504 King streetcar is the busiest streetcar line in Toronto and carries 84,000 people per day. It is busier than 2 of Toronto's 4 subway lines. https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2019/cc/bgrd/backgroundfile-132032.pdf

- The King St pilot project restricts through traffic on King St and has successfully improved the speed and reliability of 504 King streetcar service EXCEPT when events such as the Toronto International Film Festival disrupt TTC streetcar service.

- The closure of King St W from Peter St to University Ave for TIFF "Festival Street" forces the TTC to detour the 504 King streetcar onto Queen St W. This causes both 504 King and 501 Queen streetcars to bunch up on Queen St W and get stuck in traffic and delays streetcar riders by up to 1 hour during rush hour on Thursday and Friday of the closure.

Stop disrupting streetcar service on the busiest streetcar line in Toronto in rush hour! Stop closing King St in rush hour for TIFF now!
