Train service on Line 5 Eglinton will run later into the night starting Sunday as part of the next phase of its rollout.
Beginning April 5, the Toronto Transit Commission said in a release that trains will operate until 1:20 a.m. Sundays through Fridays and until 12:30 a.m. on Saturdays.
The extended hours mark another step as the TTC and Metrolinx work toward full, regular service on the line.

During this phase, trains are expected to arrive every four minutes during peak periods and every six to 10 minutes during off-peak times.
Line 5 Eglinton opened in February under temporary introductory service conditions, allowing for ongoing testing of signal systems, schedule adjustments and extended overnight maintenance.
The TTC said its Blue Night bus service will continue to run overnight after trains stop, operating from about 1 a.m. until service resumes in the morning.
Shuttle buses will also remain available to supplement service if needed.
Earlier this year, the City of Toronto adjusted traffic signals along the route to prioritize LRT vehicles through intersections, with additional transit priority measures expected in the coming months.
