Not just Queen. The August 2018 Environmental Project Report notes that Sumach "station bisects the King streetcar line, and discontinuation of this service will be necessary during the construction at this location".Good thing the 504 has the pilot now because it's about to get a whole lot busier.
What they can do is run 501, 502, 503, and 504 west along Queen Street to Parliament, south on Parliament, and west on King Street. Presumably 501 heads up Spadina to Queen - though that's going to be congested. I wonder if a connection along John Street is feasible - if only temporarily. Hopefully service on Queen East and Parliament comes with some lane restrictions, as 504 always crawled from Sackville to King during the years it was running that way while the track was closed through Corktown, when they had those bridge problems.
