==Route== [[Image:Scarborough RT between Scarborough Centre and McCowan.jpg|thumb|right|The train on its elevated tracks over [[McCowan Road]]<!--Don't bypass redirect per [[WP:NOTBROKEN]]--> between {{stl|TTC|Scarborough Centre}} and [[McCowan station]]s in September 2005]] The line followed a roughly inverted L-shaped route when viewed northwards: first from Kennedy station, paralleling the [[Canadian National Railway]] / GO Transit's [[Stouffville line]] tracks, between [[Kennedy Road (Toronto)|Kennedy Road]]<!--Don't bypass redirect per [[WP:NOTBROKEN]]--> and Midland Avenue, {{convert|4|km}} to Ellesmere Road; then eastward between Ellesmere Road and Progress Avenue, through [[Scarborough City Centre]] to [[McCowan Road]]<!--Don't bypass redirect per [[WP:NOTBROKEN]]-->. The north–south section of the route, where it followed the Stouffville line tracks, was at ground level; the shorter east–west section (except for the ground-level yard) was elevated, as was the Kennedy terminus. The line dives briefly underground just north of [[Ellesmere station]] to cross under the Stouffville line tracks. After that, it is elevated towards McCowan station. Two stations, Kennedy and Scarborough Centre, were the only stations on the line to have accessible elevators as those two were the busiest stations of Line 3. From 2 a.m. to 6 a.m. (to 8 a.m. on Sundays), when Line 3 was not operating, the 302 Kingston Rd-McCowan [[Blue Night Network|Blue Night]] bus served the same area. The 302 originates at [[Bingham Loop]], where it connects with the 322 Coxwell bus that travelled to the west, as well as Route 324 Victoria Park that runs north. From the loop, Route 302 travels east along Kingston Road to Brimley Road, then north along Brimley Road to Danforth Road, then north on McCowan Road to Steeles Avenue. With the exception of [[McCowan station]], it does not pass near any of the rapid transit stations, though other [[Night service (public transport)|night bus services]] pass near stations. Bus service was extended on Sundays because the rapid transit lines started at 8 a.m. (beginning January 3, 2016) instead of the usual 6 a.m. start. Service frequency was 30 minutes. Route 302 continues to operate after the line's closure. The frequency for this line was 4 to 5 minutes during peak periods and 5 to 6 minutes during off-peak periods.
