For the first time in 125 years, Toronto’s extensive underground PATH system has a dedicated navigation app to guide pedestrians through its intricate network.

The PATH, which began in 1900 with its first tunnel, has expanded to a 30-kilometre network beneath the city. After years of existing with no navigation system, a Toronto engineer recognized the challenge many face and developed the Toronto PATH app.

Programmer Jadiel Teofilo relocated to the city three years ago and experienced first-hand the difficulties of navigating the underground system.

“There’s no map out there actually detailed enough for people to know where they are at any given point,” he said.

“I realized I had to build my own.”

Teofilo dedicated eight months to meticulously mapping the PATH, resulting in a 3D design that features over 170 entryways, each accompanied by photographs.
