Aug 26, 2019
When it comes to work on the Eglinton Crosstown light rail transit (LRT) system, you have to think of it in layers.
As progress is made below ground – away from the view of local residents, motorists, pedestrians and business owners – advances are also taking place in front of their eyes.
These three photos give a good indication of the depth of Crosstown progress.
Waterproofing is well underway at Avenue Station, while mining continues further down the cavern.
