Was going to do a walking trip today but wasn't up to it and did Topflight area.
No more poles up for the yard tacks to Topflight.
The Derry Rd station has seen any work on it like there was to be, other than the ceiling is on. Looks like concrete been poured for the station tracks, but tarp covering it up.
There will be an single crossover north of Kingsway with switches in place, but a lot of track work remaining to be install. Only noticed today that the rails north of Kingsway are poured in place, but the rails are not spliced yet. No sure how I have miss this.
Topflight will be fully open to traffic sometime this month as most of the tracks for the intersection is fully poured with top coat to be pour for the in/out bound for the southbound track . A small section of the road has to be pour the in/out bound track and the gap between the southbound track that is fully completed now. The outbound road is pave as well all northbound lanes with asphalt curb, The real curb will be installed in the spring now. The last section of top coat area on Topflight is pour by the looks of it, but the trap is on it to say it is 100% done. Work taking place for the switch control and once that is done along with the outstanding work, the intersection can reopen.
Once the northbound lanes are shifted, the missing section of the guideway between the crossover area and Topflight can see work start on it.
With the good weather so far, it will be interesting if the February date can be met to have all the tracks in place as plan to Eglinton now. What I saw along the route is saying the February date will not be met unless there is a huge crew working on the various area that is still waiting tracks as well what is been place now. Not tracks on the 401 overpass yet.
Britannia platform not pour yet as well not form.
Stock pile of ducting sitting in the centre of the road on the south side of Burnhamthorpe Intersection and this will push back as to when the guideway work will start there for this month to the point I can see it starting at Fairview and working north from it.
Try to get a shot of the north pier hole for the 403 bridge that I noticed in one of my photos, but cover by a huge pool of water today.
With the large stockpile of foam blocks by the pier area, it looks like the will use it like they they for the Leslie eastbound off ramp over a year ago in place of earth with the tracks coming back onto Hurontario St the the westbound off ramp for the 403.
Photos to follow shortly.
