Jane is a subway station on Line 2 Bloor–Danforth of the Toronto subway in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located just north of Bloor Street West, spanning the block east of Jane Street to Armadale Avenue, with entrances from all three streets. It opened in 1968 as part of the westerly extension from Keele to Islington Station.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
In 2006, this station became accessible with the addition of elevators between the street and platform level.<ref name="accessible">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Entrances
The station's street entrances lead directly into the bus platform area in a layout that would not allow it to be readily brought into the station's fare-paid area. Until 1973 this was largely irrelevant because the station was on a fare zone boundary and the subway trains and some of the buses serving it were in separate zones.
At the west end, the Jane Street entrance is located just north of Bloor, on the east side of Jane Street. Similarly, at the other end of bus platform, there is an entrance directly from the west side of Armadale Avenue. Additionally, the station is accessible through automatic doors via a pedestrian walkway located mid-block on the north side of Bloor Street, between Jane and Armadale.<ref name=Accessible>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
