Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

Stunning non-update from Dougie on the Crosstown project:

And hey folks, if it isn't in the new year it will be the one after, maybe! Who knows? Who cares? We can't rush this thing, folks!

There is a pipe draining water from somewhere below, in the middle of Duplex Avenue at Eglinton. Has been there for at least a week. A bad omen for the Yonge-Eglinton station?
Not even connected to the line 5 project. There's water main work going on until at least November on Duplex between Berwick and Eglinton. What you are seeing is just a stub up installed in the road for flushing the new mains out.

Guess who is footing that bill?
