Public Transportation
In the early 2000s a major portion of the shopping centre's parking lot was redeveloped into a large bus terminal as part of the Toronto Transit Commission's (TTC's) Don Mills subway station (the eastern terminus of Toronto's new Sheppard subway line), and also as the southern terminus of York Region Transit's Viva Green bus rapid transit line. A significant number of the TTC's local and express bus routes deploy from or pass through this terminal station, including express buses from nearby Scarborough.
Additionally, for the duration of the closure of nearby Don Mills Shopping Centre from June 2006 to 21 April 2009, a free weekdays shuttle bus service ran between the two shopping centres.

Famous quotes containing the word public:
“Typical of Iowa towns, whether they have 200 or 20,000 inhabitants, is the church supper, often utilized to raise money for paying off church debts. The older and more conservative members argue that the “House of the Lord” should not be made into a restaurant; nevertheless, all members contribute time and effort, and the products of their gardens and larders.”
—For the State of Iowa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
