METROLINX
The Eglinton Crosstown West Extension is an
approximately 9.2-kilometre extension of the Eglinton
Crosstown LRT (future Line 5), from Mount Dennis to
Renforth Drive. Metrolinx is actively collaborating with
the GTAA and municipal partners on the proposed
alignment from Renforth Drive to the airport. Tunnelling
is one of the first phases of work for the project. The
project is being delivered in four separate contracts:
Advance Tunnelling DBF; Second Advance Tunnelling
DBF; Elevated Guideway DB; and Stations Rails and
Systems DB.
