King-Church intersection closed to all traffic until mid August, city says
The intersection of King Street E. and Church Street will be closed to all traffic starting Monday until mid-August, the City of Toronto said. The closure is part of a joint project by the city and the TTC to replace aging streetcar tracks. City crews will also replace 142-year-old watermains in the area, according to the city's website. Construction at the intersection began in May, but this full closure is happening around a month earlier than originally planned due to "unexpected underground utility conflicts" on the south side of King Street, the city said. The city's project schedule has now been changed so that crews will complete watermain work and replace streetcar tracks at the same time. While no reopening date has been announced, the city said it expects to reopen the intersection by mid-August. Temporary sidewalk closures may be required, the city said. Pedestrian detours and signage will be in place. Access to businesses and properties will be maintained throughout the construction, the city said. Starting Monday, the 504C and 504D/304D King replacement buses will divert around the intersection, the TTC said in a news release Friday. Buses will divert via Jarvis Street, Front Street eastbound, Wellington Street westbound and Yonge Street, the transit agency said. Existing diversions for the 503/303 Kingston Road and the 504/304 King streetcars will continue. The 504 King streetcar will divert both ways via Shaw Street, and the 503 Kingston Road streetcar will continue to divert via Spadina Avenue and Queen Street W., running west on King Street to Dufferin Loop, the TTC said.

Full closure of King-Church intersection beginning a month ahead of schedule on June 2
The intersection of King Street East and Church Street will be fully closed to all traffic starting on Monday, about four weeks earlier than initially expected. Last month, the City of Toronto and TTC began working to replace sections of the 142-year-old watermains and rebuild pipes and streetcar tracks at King and Church streets resulting in traffic being reduced to one lane in each direction. The city said that 'unexpected underground conflicts' on the south side of King necessitated changes to the construction approach, as part of the watermain that was originally planned to be replaced will now be 'relined to extend its service life.' To stay on schedule, the watermain work and advance streetcar track replacement will be done in tandem. As a result, the TTC will implement a number of diversions, notably the 504C and 504D/304D King routes, around the intersection due to the construction. As with the full closure, this routing change is also happening earlier than planned, with buses will diverting via Jarvis, Front, (eastbound), Wellington (westbound), and Yonge streets. Existing diversions to the 503/303 Kingston Rd and the 504/304 King streetcars will remain as they are. The 504 King streetcar, meanwhile, will divert both ways via Shaw Street and the 503 Kingston Road streetcar will continue to divert via Spadina and Queen, running west on King Street to the Dufferin Loop. This expedited work schedule will now mean that the intersection is expected to reopen by mid-August. The construction work, while is needed to bring this infrastructure to a state of good repair and is part of the City Council's approved 2025 Capital Works Program, was to originally ramp up in July and conclude in late August.
