What are the metro hours for Good Friday and Easter Sunday? Metro grocery stores will be closed on both days, aligning with the schedules of many large grocery chains.
On Good Friday, several other retailers will have different hours of operation. For instance, RJ’s Market will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., while Shoppers Drug Mart will operate from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on both Good Friday and Easter Monday.
In contrast, most LCBO stores in Ontario will also be closed on Good Friday and Easter Sunday. However, Loblaws at 60 Carlton St. will be open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Good Friday, and Farm Boy locations will welcome customers from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m..
Whole Foods at 87 Avenue Rd. will have hours from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Good Friday, while Rabba locations will remain open 24 hours. Many No Frills locations may operate from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m..
Public transit services will also adjust their schedules for the holiday. The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) will operate on a holiday service schedule, starting at approximately 6 a.m. on Good Friday. Go Transit will follow a Saturday schedule on that day.
This adjustment in metro hours reflects a broader trend among retailers and transit services during holiday periods, aiming to accommodate the varying needs of the public while also observing traditional closures.
As the holiday approaches, residents are encouraged to plan accordingly, especially if they rely on public transit or specific grocery stores for their needs.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding any last-minute changes to these schedules, so it is advisable to check with individual retailers or transit services for the most accurate information.
