^ Since this text is in bold, the legend says that means there has been a change since the last update. I haven't had time to look back and see what changed. The NDP are claiming in this press release that the project has been delayed.

Someone's trying to cash in on the Clark station: https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/25105175/15-clark-ave-markham-thornhill

$27 million per acre. I wonder if that's a realistic price.

It might be if you could buy the neighbouring lots too but on its own? You can't exactly throw up a tower on that single lot.

They have already setup construction trailers near Hendon park.

The should go back to the old plan for Steele station and add in provision for an east-west line on Steeles that would support an LRT in the long run.. The only buses that will not be using the Steeles station will be YRT/VIVA buses for Yonge St. This will reduce some bus bays.

Seems premature as they haven't even ordered TBM's yet.

I believe it's work to upgrade the substation

It literally explains in Northern Light's post , 3 posts above, that this is preliminary TPSS work.
No tunnelling yet. Just the start of early works at Finch.

And what to do with all that Finch station bus space that will no longer be needed.

There will still be GO services to Finch. They should revamp it so that people don't have to wait in makeshift shelters.
