Scheduled disruptions return to the transit system immediately after the conclusion of FIFA festivities in Toronto.

The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) has resumed its schedule of planned subway outages following the departure of FIFA World Cup visitors, according to reporting from BlogTO.

Toronto's role as a host for the World Cup festivities officially ended on Sunday with the final Fan Fest event at Fort York. BlogTO reports that the disruption-free service experienced throughout June and July has ended, with four scheduled disruptions planned between July 20 and July 31.

Planned track work and infrastructure maintenance will impact three separate subway stretches:

* **Line 2 (Bloor Danforth):** Service between Jane and Ossington stations will shut down nightly at 11:59 p.m. starting Monday, July 20, and continuing through Wednesday, July 22. Additionally, service between St George and Broadview stations will start late on Sunday, July 26, beginning at 11 a.m. * **Line 4 (Sheppard):** The entire route from Sheppard-Yonge to Don Mills will shut down nightly at 11:59 p.m. beginning Thursday, July 23, through Friday, July 24, then again from Monday, July 27, through Friday, July 31.

BlogTO notes that shuttle buses will replace subway service during these outages.
