The City of Toronto is considering the introduction of priority bus lanes along a corridor synonymous with frustrating delays and unreliable service. In response, Toronto and the TTC are considering the implementation of dedicated bus lanes on Dufferin Street between King Street West and Eglinton Avenue West (a 7.1-kilometre segment) to increase speed and reliability. Priority bus lanes would help reduce delays, improve service and support Toronto's growing transportation needs, especially ahead of major events like the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Dedicated bus lanes are being considered in the northbound and southbound curb lanes using new signage, red paint and pavement markings. For years, transit advocates have been petitioning to get priority bus lanes on the congested street.
