    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Pulled together from released information - italic are major milestones: Exhibition: Exhibition 2/3 Tower Cranes Installed. Foundation Works ongoing for platforms. Foundation Works ongoing for North Headhouse and TPSS. TBM Portal very close to complete excavation to 20m depth. King-Bathurst...

    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    As fair as it is to be frustrated that the project is not open, and does not have a planned opening date - it is presumptuous and a bit ignorant to assume that inefficient workers are the reason towers are being completed and transit isn't. There are vastly greater levels of engineering...

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line: Queen-Spadina Station | ?m | 1s | Metrolinx | HDR

    I agree that these towers could benefit from being taller, but with that said, there is an argument to be made that the towers at Queen-Spadina potentially stand to have a significant long-term impact on the redevelopment of Queen Street West. The North Shaft Tower will be the tallest building...

    Alto - High Speed Rail (Toronto-Quebec City)

    The percentages of design are associated with the completeness and level of detail, with each key milestone (which can vary between client/project) giving the reviewer(s) opportunity to provide comments and right any misdirections which may be taken prior to fully committing to them. Generally...

    Alto - High Speed Rail (Toronto-Quebec City)

    The process that was followed for the Ontario Line is that a rough design was completed by the technical advisor and then improved up to around 10% for the various bids with some changes. From there the design became the responsibility of each GC for each Ontario Line package. The link you...

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Most Metrolinx Projects (Including the Ontario Line) have to go through the City of Toronto's permitting process for Building Permits and the various other permits involved in constructing the stations, maintaining the site, and the extensive monitoring program that the project brings with it...

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Most of these examples are excellent landscaping and grading but are not reflective of the nature of the joint LSE+OL corridor nor its immediate surroundings. You'll note that none of them show any buildings within their immediate proximity, and none are located in a dense, urban environment...

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I am aware of the history regarding the alternative proposed routes and the involvement of the NIMBY's along Main, but a rejection by a bunch of NIMBY's should not be grounds to automatically gravitate towards a significantly more expensive option which does not align with the density of the...

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I understand the attitude that any transit is good transit, but tunneling this line into downtown Brampton is a tremendous waste of taxpayer money. Any number of alternatives (median on Main or Kennedy and then the rail corridor) could have delivered the same service for a fraction of the cost...

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    If more people (especially the Property Owners, Journalists, and a lot of you) would bother to actually read the Expropriations Act, they would realise that many of the complaints surrounding its perceived unfairness are plainly incorrect. The Act offers a series of protections and rights to the...

    Toronto Toronto | 80 Lynn Williams | 149.2m | 44s | Collecdev-Markee | gh3

    Thanks! Does that apply to only this project or did the company change its name?

    Toronto Toronto | Liberty Place | ?m | 32s | CanAlfa | IBI Group

    Is CanAlfa Group still around?
  13. 1

    Toronto Toronto | 80 Lynn Williams | 149.2m | 44s | Collecdev-Markee | gh3

    Does anyone know what happened to CanAlfa? All the Liveinliberty/Shopinliberty websites are defunct. Is this project still CanAlfa?
