Construction of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT Line
Background
• In September 2008, Metrolinx launched a regional transportation plan – a 25-year, $50 billion plan -- to coordinate and integrate transportation and transit in the Greater Toronto Area
• In 2010, City of Toronto approved the project to build the Eglinton Crosstown from Weston Road in the west to Kennedy Station in the east.
• Following a competitive process, Crosslinx Transit Solutions (CTS) was awarded a contract in July 2015 to design, build, finance, and maintain the Eglinton Crosstown Light Rail Transit (LRT).

How We’re Building Fairbank Station:
Support of Excavation – Top Down
• Also known as ‘shoring’ or ‘piling’, support of excavation is a common step in the process of constructing a building.
• An area the size of the station’s footprint (about 100m x 20m) called the ‘station box’ is cut, steel piles are installed around the perimeter, a shallow area is excavated, and braces and tie-backs are installed at the sides to support excavation.
• A concrete roof slab is constructed and placed over top of the excavated area, restoring traffic while crews work safely underground.
• Support of excavation at Fairbank Station will take approximately 1.5 years to complete
