The Toronto Transit Commission operates six types of bus routes:[1]

  • Regular service routes have at least one branch or a section of overlapping branches that operates from 6 am (8 am on Sundays) to 1 am the next calendar day, 7 days per week. Some routes are part of the 10-minute network having one or more branches operating at a 10-minute frequency (or better) throughout the day and evening. Otherwise, service frequency varies by route and time of day.
  • Limited service routes do not serve all hours of the day, or not all days of the week. The frequency of service varies by route. Regular service and limited service routes are collectively numbered between 7 and 189.
  • Seasonal routes (200-series) operating during the warmer months serving and named after a city attraction such as Toronto Zoo, Bluffer's Park, and Cherry Beach
  • Blue Night Network routes (300-series) operate from 1 am to 6 am (8 am on Sundays), which are also the times that the Toronto subway system does not operate. Service frequency is 30 minutes or better depending on route.
  • Community bus routes (400-series) operate Monday to Friday between the morning and afternoon peak periods, and connect senior citizen residences with local amenities within a community. Unlike for other routes, community bus routes use minibuses, and passengers may flag down the bus anywhere along route.
  • Express network routes (900-series) serve only select stops. The service frequency varies by route, and some routes do not operate during all periods. However, two express routes (900 Airport Express and 927 Highway 27 Express) are also part of the 10-minute network.

The TTC operates several bus routes that run from Toronto into a neighbouring municipality. Outside of Toronto, these routes operate on behalf of either MiWay (Mississauga) or York Region Transit, and require a TTC fare within Toronto and either a Miway or a YRT fare beyond the Toronto city limits.[3] With Ontario's One Fare program, only one fare is required for such routes provided that the rider pays the fare by credit, debit or Presto card on a Presto device, and completes the trip within two hours (within three hours if the trip involves the use of GO Transit).[4]

All routes have wheelchair-accessible low-floor buses. Except for community routes, all buses are equipped with bicycle racks that can hold two standard-sized bicycles.
