In terms of accessibility, Pape Station does not as yet have elevator service from the subway level to the surface. Escalator service is available from the subway level to the surface.

Surface connections

• 25 Don Mills to Steeles

• 72 Pape to Eastern Ave.

The once planned Downtown Relief Line would have built another station below Pape to connect to the Bloor-Danforth line and to serve as the northern terminus at Phase One. The station would have likely been renamed Pape-Danforth.

The renovations include adding a second entrance to the platform level, installation of elevators, new wall treatments public art and upgraded lighting and upgrading ventilation and fire safety systems.^[1] The project was scheduled to begin in 2008, but due to delays the contractor did not mobilize on the site until 28 September 2009.
