TTC management was contacted in writing twice about these incidents and was never addressed. Motorcycles powered by gasoline and over-sized electric bikes can be frequently observed on the platform of this particular Spadina Subway station. I encountered three close calls in September this year as I attempted to exit the subway, with my safety jeopardized by motorcycles that recklessly entered the subway car without allowing passengers to disembark first. The TTC management appears to have no security measures in place to address this issue, as these vehicles are entering the subway from ground-level, specifically the bus entrance, in a clear violation of regulations. Furthermore, the TTC staff members on site do not appear to be taking any action to prevent this behavior.

Too much walking distance between line 2 & Line 1 Stations and Both station have same name. It's really uncomfortable for commuters & not the great Subway design.

St. George is much better, as its only a stairway down from line to line and is only 1 minute by train, otherwise you'll have to walk the 3 minute Spadina Tunnel. The station design is fine, there could be better signaling on how to get from Line 1 to 2. Otherwise, it's a good station, and getting to the streetcar is very easy. Almost like Union Stations Streetcar stop. Would not recommend transferring...
