The censors likely changed it from "Dougy".
They've changed this plan so many times. The current (final) plan it to centre the station at Progress and McCowan, with the main building at the southeast corner, not far north from the existing McCowan station. But with a secondary entrance at the northwest corner of Triton and McCowan. I'd assume ultimately the mall would have some kind of connection/expansion from there to the mall.
probably because the stations contract is 2 years out from signing? unlike ontario line which is doing the tunnels and the stations at relatively the same time
No - the contractor for the stations was selected last year. I'm surprised that they haven't signed yet. But if you look in Aecon's careers section, they are already hiring, so presumably immenent.
i mean, yea "something" was signed, but it was the "2 year development agreement" we wont see any real details for another year at least is my guess.No - the contractor for the stations was selected last year.

Dev Co Selected for Scarborough Subway Extension Stations, Rail and Systems Contract
Metrolinx and Infrastructure Ontario (IO) have selected Scarborough Transit Connect as the development partner ((known as the “Dev Co”) to enter the development phase of the Stations, Rail and Systems (SRS) contract for the Scarborough Subway Extension project.www.infrastructureontario.ca
If you look at the same schedule for the Ontario Line, the southern section is only running 22 days earlier! We've seen more information on the Pape Avenue stations for Ontario line, and they haven't even issued an RFP yet!
That they start tunnelling way before station construction starts is part of the problem. Especially as the stations take longer. Once again, actual station construction mighty not start until after the tunnelling is complete.
