Earlier this year, the TTC announced that the extension on the Toronto-York Spadina Subway Extension (TYSSE) line was powered up and tested for the Automatic Train Control (ATC) signal system. The testing for the new stations began in early 2017, and included testing elevators, lighting, and fire alarms, which will continue until the line opens.
