while having the contract in place significant improves the odd that it'll stand, it's still not 100% safe and can still be cancelled with penalties, eg: Mississauga gas plant.

ha.. oops. you're right, it's 15 METERS a day.

Eglinton West station is about 4km and Yonge is about 7 km away. So going by 15 km/day, that'll take about 9/16 months to get to Allen and Yonge respectively. Unless Wynne decide to jump the gun early, election isn't expected till next spring at the earliest. So with luck, it'll be around...

umm. I don't think 80 m classifies as point of no return, or "election proof". How far did they did get in the 90s before it was cancelled the last time? I'd wait for it to get to Allen before I break out the bubbly.

well.. if you do the math. It's been digging for about 3 months. Giving 20 work days a month that's 60 days. The TBMs can do about 15 meters a day if I remember correctly, that would make 900 meters. Not even to Keele yet.

Sweet! My house is a mere 4 short blocks away. Can't wait!

Just saw this Oakwood Station Headwall Construction for Twin Tunnels http://www.thecrosstown.ca/news-media/whats-new/oakwood-station-headwall-construction-for-twin-tunnels Does this mean Oakwood Station is now approved? There was a whole bunch of back and forth on that for the last 2 years.
