Connecting transit

Even though the station's connecting services are provided by the Toronto Transit Commission, the station itself is situated rather far from Finch Avenue or Leslie Street to really provide a convenient connection. Stairs from Finch Avenue provide pedestrian access to the station platform. The TTC's 39 Finch East and 51 Leslie bus routes pass close to the station.
