Dundas Station

Dundas is a station of the Yonge-University-Spadina line of the subway system in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located at 300 Yonge Street at Dundas Street West/East. It opened in 1954. Nearby landmarks include Dundas Square, the north end of the Eaton Centre, Ryerson University, Olympic Spirit Toronto, the Toronto Bus Terminal, Old Chinatown, Toronto City Hall, the Canon Theatre, and Toronto Life Square (yet to be completed).

Dundas is the only station in Toronto where the northbound and southbound platforms are in separate fare-paid areas, owing to the constrained space and difficult geology at this location. Separate street entrances had to be used for each direction until the Eaton Centre was built, at which time a tunnel was constructed under the tracks outside the fare-paid areas. If on the wrong platform, a passenger can take a transfer from the transfer machines available on the platform, exit the station, and re-enter the station on the other platform by showing the collector at the booth the transfer obtained.

The station is also connected to the Toronto Bus Terminal via the Atrium on Bay office complex, and is one of five stations connected to PATH.

The station features William McElcheran’s Cross Section, located by the northwest entrance and along the under-platform crosswalk.
