 York Region Transit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
TTC passengers that cross Steeles Avenue (the Toronto-York boundary) on a TTC route must pay an additional fare (the YRT fare) to continue on that route (in practical sense, the TTC bus becomes a YRT bus when it crosses Steeles Avenue).
YRT buses are allowed to pick up passengers south of Steeles Avenue if they are heading into York Region (but passengers must flag the bus from a designated TTC or YRT stop).
YRT buses heading to a TTC subway station can similarly drop off passengers at designated stops south of Steeles Avenue, but are usually not permitted to pick up passengers from these stops (Notable Exception: people who get on on Steeles and make a transfer at Yonge).

 CityNews: Steeles Ave. & Bathurst St. Rank Among Worst Ontario Roads
Steeles Ave., long a contender for the most miserable street in Ontario, came in third in the survey.
But the number one worst boulevard of broken rims belongs to a relatively obscure thoroughfare for those in the G.T.A. It's Cardwell Road in a place called the Township of Assiginack, which is located on the eastern portion of Manitoulin Island.
The avenue wins because of the sheer number of potholes, likely aggravated by the severe winters that the pavement has to endure.

The study determined that extending and connecting the north ends of the Yonge and Spadina Subway lines across Steeles Avenue was the preferred alternative.
