Accessibility Failures on Eglinton Crosstown

A blind disability advocate is sounding the alarm over critical accessibility flaws in Toronto’s new Eglinton Crosstown line, revealing how tactile guides only lead to elevators — leaving users stranded without clear paths to stairs or escalators. Demonstrating the problem at Chaplin Station, he insists all access points must be clearly marked for true independence. While Metrolinx claims to prioritize inclusivity and consults with disabled users, Lepofsky remains unconvinced and has demanded a meeting with the CEO — calling out systemic barriers that still prevent equitable transit access.
