All of these updates are still with respect to the overall rail corridor and not the ontario line per say,. Thea actual ontario line specific track construction hasnt actually started in the lakeshore east corridor from what I can tell

It won't for some time. They have only just started the northern expansion of the corridor, so it will be a couple of years before they will be ready for installing any track in that section.
That said, the first bit of track will likely be located as the MSF, which is where the cars will be delivered to and where preliminary testing will occur.

Anyone remember that the YNSE is supposed to be one of the 4 "Priority Subway Projects"?
... anyone?

YNSE is gated on the Ontario Line and Bloor Yonge Station Expansion, both of which are happening, so the prerequisites for it are being slowly resolved

Update on the Lakeshore East corridor.
Queen Bridge. My question regarding girders being installed over the existing old section instead of demolishing it was answered. The girders were for the gap between the new & old section of the bridge instead.
Looking north towards Dundas with some new track sections laid on the south/east side and a stack of track sections on the north/west side.
Dundas bridge.
Logan bridge.
Looking north/east of the Logan bridge towards Carlaw & Gerrard.

Great shots! Is it just me or does the width of the railway get constrained just beyond the Logan bridge and almost get a little wavy on the new wall? I guess the OL will be stealing land from the townhome development that abuts Logan and first? They have a large hill with lands behind the development that I suppose Mx is planning on taking for the OL?

The fence is the edge of Mx owned land. All necessary property expropriations and demos on the north side are complete.

How many tracks in total will the leslieville section have after the OL is built? 2 for lakeshore, 2 for stouffville and extra for via?

The corridor will be 6 tracks wide. 4 for GO and VIA +2 for Line 3

Thank you! I see that construction fence now so in this area the corridor will lean more heavily to the side on the left that will need to be filled in. Got it!

It was finally warm enough for me to run home from work (the days of me running daily, no matter the weather are in the past!). First, the north works for the DVCB (Don Valley Crossing Bridge), as viewed from the Leaside bridge.
Next up the work on the south portal and the future pier next to the DVP.

Tracking shifting coming up in a couple weeks. They're doing this section 1 set of tracks at a time, presumably because it's a longer section than the last one (Eastern to Jimmie Simpson Park)
