Location

Wi-Fi service is available at this station. The main entrance at Bathurst and Bloor, where the collectors and faregates are located, is in the station building at the surface, which puts the station's streetcar and bus platforms within the fare paid zone. The opening of elevators in January 2000 made the station fully accessible. The elevators provide access between the eastbound platform and concourse, and between the westbound platform and street level via the concourse. There is regular stairway and escalator connections between all levels. There is also a secondary unstaffed entrance on Markham street just north of Bloor street, which leads directly to the subway platform.

On August 4, 2020, the Photo ID Centre at Sherbourne station was permanently closed and relocated to Bathurst station on the concourse level.
