The Highway 407 Station is a multi-modal transportation hub with TTC
subway, YRT and GO Transit accessible bus service and space for a future
407 Transitway.
In addition to the 583 parking spaces, 25 accessible parking spaces are provided adjacent to the Passenger Pick-Up and Drop-Off close to the TTC entrance facility. The barrier-free access route from the parking lot and Passenger Pick-Up and Drop-Off is separated from vehicle traffic and leads directly to the sliding doors at the main entrance.


The sloping bus terminal roof will be clad with a standing seam,
clear anodized aluminum roof with landscaped berms where the structure
curves down toward ground level. The back of house rooms are clad in
white ceramic panels with painted metal doors to match. Glazing to the
bus terminal is bird-friendly fritted glass in black aluminum curtain
wall framing. Cornice and roof overhang soffits are clad in zinc coated
aluminum panels.
Hard landscaping will be coloured and textured concrete. Soft
landscaping will be generally hardy and low maintenance for durability
in the local environment. Street furniture will be integrated along with
the provision of bicycle facilities to TTC standards alongside the
Passenger Pick-Up and Drop-Off.

Interior walls and columns to the bus platforms and waiting area are
clad with white ceramic panels, with doors painted to match. Bus
platform floors are concrete, transitioning to polished concrete inside
the bus terminal. Stairs are dark granite with nosings in a paler colour
to provide contrast required to meet the TTC barrier-free design
standards, with a field of TTC standard warning tiles at the top
landing.Escalators are TTC standard high deck with stainless steel clad balustrades and a yellow art glass finish to the outer balustrades. The guardrails around the vertical circulation openings are stainless steel frames with tempered-laminated glass panels.
Ceilings are clear anodised brushed aluminum perforated panels containing acoustic absorbing material, with accent downstands in a glossy black finish.


The concourse leads passengers from all entrance facilities to the
fare line that contains an easier access low fare gate. The future
Highway 407 Transitway will also connect into the concourse on the
unpaid side of the fare line.Passing through the fare line leads to a landing that projects into a multi-storey space with a view out through a bank of sloped art glass windows looking toward Jane Street. The landing leads to an elevator and four escalators that connect to the platform. A staircase also wraps around the glazed elevator shaft down to the platform to accommodate additional capacity.
