What Work is Taking Place?
Beginning as early as mid-September, crews will start support of excavation work (shoring) at the main entrance site of the future Chaplin Station. The main entrance is located on the northeast corner of Eglinton Avenue West and Chaplin Crescent. Shoring is a common step in the process of constructing the foundation of a building. Steel piles, braces and tie-backs will be installed around the perimeter of the main entrance area to support excavation.
This stage will take approximately eight (8) weeks to complete. In late 2016, shoring of the station box, within the roadway, is expected to begin for a period of approximately 20 months.
Please note that the ongoing Bell utilities relocation on the south side of Eglinton Avenue West will continue concurrently with shoring activity for approximately five (5) weeks.
Hours of Work
- This work will be conducted Monday through Friday between the hours of 7:00 AM and 11:00 PM, with crews working until 11:00 PM on a regular basis.

- In the event that overnight work is required, Metrolinx and CTS will notify the public in advance and monitor activities throughout.
