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.

Station modernization and Transit City proposal

Pape is the first station scheduled to be renovated under a new modernization program, which will update the visual, safety and infrastructure aspects of many older stations. 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 ^[2]

The Transit City proposal calls for a new LRT line known as the Don Mills LRT line, running along Don Mills Road from Steeles Avenue to Pape Station.
