Bathurst is a subway station on Line 2 Bloor–Danforth in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The station, which opened in 1966, is located on Bathurst Street just north of Bloor Street West. It is a major transfer point for both bus and streetcar routes, including the 511 Bathurst route, which provides services to Exhibition Place.
Wi-Fi service is available at this station. The ticket collector and turnstiles are in the station building at the surface, which puts streetcar and bus platforms within the fare paid zone. The opening of the elevators in January 2000 made the station fully accessible. Elevators provide access between the eastbound platform and concourse, and between the westbound platform and street level via the concourse. There are also regular stairway and escalator connections between all levels.
The station serves The Annex and Koreatown neighbourhoods. Nearby destinations include Honest Ed's, St. Peter's Roman Catholic Church, Bathurst Street Theatre, Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema (formerly The Bloor Hot Docs Cinema), Lee's Palace, Central Technical School and Harbord Collegiate Institute.
In November 2016, the Honest Ed's style signs and slogans were decorated in this station to commemorate the impact of Honest Ed’s landmark discount store on the community. This temporary tribute remained on display until just after Honest Ed's closing on December 31, 2016. Temporary signs hand-painted in the familiar Honest Ed’s style welcomed customers at street level, and the windows were decorated with the TTC’s unique take on Ed’s famous punny signs. In addition to this unique tribute, the TTC’s November 2016 Metropass featured Honest Ed’s famous sign.
