Metrolinx construction crews have installed escalators at the Eglinton Crosstown Light-Rail Transit (LRT) stop at Caledonia.

New images from the project capture the task of workers as they recently pulled escalators to the upper concourse using chains.

As well, hard work continues at the west end of the Crosstown line, with a new photo that shows crews installing snow melting tubing which will heat up the platforms from below in the winter.

And at Laird, teams have completed a large concrete pour, bringing them one step closer to finishing the street level of the future station.

Metrolinx says everyone is rising to the challenge of getting the Toronto route up and running.
