Info
Sheppard West (formerly Downsview) is a subway station on Line 1 Yonge–University in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The station, which is located at the southeast corner of Sheppard Avenue West–Allen Road intersection, opened in 1996 in what was then the City of North York, and the large commuter parking lot, accessible via Allen Road and Sheppard Avenue, opened in July 2005. It was the northern terminus of the western branch of the line until the opening of the six stations of the Toronto–York Spadina Subway Extension (TYSSE). On May 7, 2017, the station's name was changed from Downsview to Sheppard West in preparation for the opening of the TYSSE, and to avoid naming conflicts with the new Downsview Park station, both of which opened on December 17, 2017.
When this station opened, it was among the first accessible stations of the Toronto subway. The station also features Wi-Fi service.
