The work sets the stage for future light rail vehicles.

Metrolinx has made significant progress with rail work on the Eglinton Crosstown light rail transit project.

At the platform level of Fairbank Station, crews have completed the installation of the rail track. Visually, it sets the stage for the future light rail vehicles that will make their way constantly in and out of that Toronto stop.

Meanwhile, at Oakwood Station, there is more delicate work taking place. Experts are installing the final tiling at platform level.

At Chaplin Station, there’s work happening on the stairs between the platform level and the concourse levels.

And in the railway corridor, the structural steel installation for the center UP Express platform has been completed. Mount Dennis Station will link Crosstown with UP, as well as to GO Transit and Toronto Transit Commission buses.
