}}Ellesmere is a rapid transit station on Line 3 Scarborough of the Toronto subway in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located at Ellesmere Road, between Kennedy Road and Midland Avenue.[1]

Ellesmere is the least-used station on the entire TTC network. On average, only 1,850 passengers boarded trains here each day in 2006–2007 and only 1,678 in 2007–2008.[2] Part of the reason for this is that there are no bus bays or at least a direct connection to any bus stop at the station; passengers would have to walk to the nearest bus stop on Ellesmere Road.

The future of the station is still in question, as many proposals have been made about either the extension of Line 2 Bloor–Danforth or a light rail transit replacement for Line 3. If a subway is to be built, it would involve the elimination of this station, along with {{ttcs|Midland}}, {{ttcs|McCowan}}, and {{ttcs|Lawrence East}} stations.[3][4]

History

Ellesmere station opened in 1985, along with the rest of Line 3.

Station description

The station is located underneath the elevated section of Ellemere Road, in the Kennedy Road and Midland Avenue corridor. The station is fairly small, and is similar in appearance with Lawrence East station. It is built on two levels, with the ground level being the RT platforms, and the single entrance and collector underneath it.

The entrance can be accessed from either side of the station through two sets of stairs, from either Kennedy Road or Midland Avenue via Service Road. Since entering the station requires the use of stairs, this station is not accessible whatsoever.

South of the station, the line continues to travel at ground level alongside the GO train tracks for the remainder of the route towards Lawrence East station.
