The final tally will depend on how quickly the TTC and the city want the project done, said TTC board chair Josh Colle, councillor for Eglinton—Lawrence.
“How aggressive do we want to be to get this back on track,” he said.
Toronto and York Region would be on the hook for those additional costs. But given the longstanding, extensive issues with the project it wouldn’t be unreasonable for Ottawa and Queen’s Park to chip in a commensurate amount, said Colle.
“If it’s the will of York Region, Toronto and the TTC to get this in line with the targets that have been set, it’s going to cost a lot of money,” he said, citing accelerated work schedules and increased labour costs..
