Getting to York University

[15 Library Ln, North York, ON M3J 2S5]

You can consult the interactive maps of York University on how to find your way around the Keele campus.

York University is accessible from the rest of the city mainly by subway Line 1 (the yellow line) at the York University station or at the Pioneer Village station. It is approximately 35-50 minutes to downtown and 15-20 minutes to the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre station. You can find more information on the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) website, including the subway and streetcar map, and information on fares and passes. The easiest way to use public transit in Toronto is through the Presto card, which can be purchased in almost all subway stations and can be loaded with multiple fares or passes.

If you travel to Toronto via the Pearson International Airport, you can use the Union-Pearson Express (UPExpress) train to conveniently travel to downtown Toronto in only 25 minutes. You can buy your train tickets online, at the airport or even pay with your Presto card. The train stops at Union Station, where you can take the yellow subway line towards Vaughan to get to York University. Alternatively, you can take one of the TTC buses with airport service with a single TTC fare.

Accomodation

Attendees can find accommodation along line 1 of the subway in Vaughan (15 min) or Downtown Toronto (35-50 min). Most of the available hotel options that are close to York University are in Vaughan, 3 subway stations away from the university.

Land Acknowledgment

York University recognizes that many Indigenous Nations have longstanding relationships with the territories upon which York University campuses are located that precede the establishment of York University. York University acknowledges its presence on the traditional territory of many Indigenous Nations. The area known as Tkaronto has been care taken by the Anishinabek Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, and the Huron-Wendat. It is now home to many First Nation, Inuit and Métis communities. We acknowledge the current treaty holders, the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. This territory is subject of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement to peaceably share and care for the Great Lakes region.
