That isn't even a station site!

Where's the best place to get these spec docs for the entire line?

Roll plot or individual site documents in AIC, but you won’t find all of them. And no telling what may be outdated. Good luck!

Thanks for sharing!
This answers @bpbpbpbp's question from earlier regarding Pape Station's depth. On page 24, it shows that the station will be ~86m above sea level where the ground level is ~118, making the station depth ~32m. I hope I mathed that one correctly!

It appears the Broadview extension is not driving anything with respect to timing. I have been unable to find a public timeline for the new road

This is the cashflow projection for the project in this year's budget:

The first number, 5M, is this year, 2026, with the subsequent numbers being 2027, 2028 and 2029.

That graphic came from a UT article on the station. It's always hide and seek finding technical data on ML projects!

Thank you.

I guess the Broadview extension project has at least two bookends timewise. With respect to the starting point, probably the Broadview and Eastern Flood Protection project needs to finish first, given that the new street will be in a relatively low-lying area. That might explain the relatively low spend this year.

With respect to completion, the GO portions of East Harbour Station were (at one point) forecast to open sometime around 2028, and it would be quite useful to have the new street leading to the station by opening day. That would perhaps explain bigger budgets for 2027-2029 and then (if I'm reading the excerpt correctly) nothing afterwards.

"In total, Toronto had 106 active cranes, followed by 42 in Los Angeles, 24 in Calgary, and 17 in Seattle. This landslide comes even after RLB reduced Toronto's survey area to only the downtown core in Q1 2024. Now, just cranes located within 3.5 kilometres of the Bloor Street West and Avenue Road centre are included."

Seeing new signage near Gerrard/Carlaw for TGP, Trillium Guideway Partners. This would suggest the handover from LSE early works to guideway + station construction has happened / is happening now.

Sorry for the continual gripe, gripe, gripe from me. But again, in Don Valley Station, the elevator connecting Line 5 to the bus bays will continue to be unavailable until the new building is finished and open, and wheelchair users are expected to use the streets to connect from the southwest building all the way to Gervais Avenue. And now, there will be sidewalk closures, so good luck with that.

The good news is, they seem to be plowing ahead, trying to get as much done as possilbe in the next 2 months. OL will not be open for many years, and who knows when the track will be laid, but I'm happy to see work progressing. Let them finish and open up some closed-off areas and sidewalks, and maybe even that elevator.
