TTC subway map using Google Maps, now easier to use

To make stations on my TTC subway map easier to locate, I have added an alphabetical, clickable list of subway stations, colour-coded by subway line. Enjoy.

    Thank you so much for creating this site. I needed an address so I could GMap
    directions for a friend and finding the street address was fruitless on the TTC
    website.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Marry, the zoom slider is in the upper left … unless you mean the mouse scrollwheel zoom, which is not enabled.

    Thank you so much… very helpful… needed to know street address of the subway, couldn’t find in on TTC website.
    The zoom was very helpful too.

    Thanks for this. Don’t know why TTC site doesn’t include this.

    As Diane’s pointed out re TTC’s own website which is very old school in it’s approach to information delivery (text based timetables in 2008??? c’mon! Is this one of the most popular cities in the world or some third world country??

    You Mr Crazed Monkey need to get paid by TTC. I’m referring all my contacts to your site for a route map from now on.

    Well done that monkey! :D

    Nicely done … I’m probably going to be blushing when I read your answer to this question: what is the meaning of the colour-coded bars on the station names?

    The stations on that map are colour-coded by subway line. The green stations are on the Bloor line, the red on the Yonge-University line, the purple ones are on the Sheppard line and the blue ones are on the Scarborough LRT.

    Cheers

    I cannot believe the “new and improved” TTC map is so lousy. With YRT/VIVA, I can accurately plot my trip and see what time I have to be at which stop to go where. I am trying to go to the CNE this weekend. There are NO timed stops other than the “next three buses”, nor any way to judge what bus you need to be on so that you can make the transfer to the subway which will take you don’t know how long etc etc. How useless. I was hoping this site would help in that area but no luck. Anyone with any advice? It won’t help me for tomorrow but maybe for Monday when I go back. I estimate 2 minutes between subway stops (except 10 minutes from Eglinton West to Dupont) but as for bus routes I have no idea. Helpppppp!!!!
