TRANSIT (20 minutes, $3 one way or $10 for day pass) - Walk to 180 Yorkland Blvd (1min). Take Bus 24A Victoria Park towards Don Mills Station (7 stops). At Don Mills Station, take the Sheppard Subway (do not have to pay again) in the westward direction and get off at Leslie Station (1 stop).  Head up both sets of escalators. Exit and CCNM is directing in front you (Brown brick building).

 

Directions from airport to CCNM and Days Hotel

The best way to get to their hotel or to CCNM is via Taxi.  I do not want our speakers to have to travel 2 hours on the subway line, which requires multiple transfers.

(25 minutes) - Head east and take ramp to ON-409E.  Keep right at the fork to remain on ON-409E. Take exit 1 to merge onto ON-409E toward ON-401. Continue onto On-401E. Take exit 373 Leslie St. Turn left onto Leslie St.  Proceed through the set of lights (see General Hospital on right and CCNM on left). To continue to Days Hotel, take a right on Sheppard Ave East.  Take right onto Yorkland.
