What Work Is Taking Place?
As early as Thursday December 3, 2020 crews at Eglinton Station will perform a concrete pour on the north side of Eglinton Avenue, east of Yonge Street. The concrete will form one of the permanent station structures underground. To ensure the integrity and continuity of the pour, work will begin as early as 4:00 a.m. and take approximately eighteen (18) hours to complete.
To safely perform this work, the north-south crosswalk on the east side of Eglinton Avenue will be temporarily closed during the pour, to allow enough space for concrete trucks to enter and exit the work zone. Concrete trucks will stage within the work zones. Traffic control personnel and/or a paid duty officer will be present, while this work takes place.
What to Expect
Noise from construction equipment including concrete trucks and pumps, can be expected. Please note that concrete trucks must remain running to allow for continuous turning of the mixer and to discharge concrete. Site lighting is required and will be positioned away from residential properties. Two concrete pumps will be set up within the work one. More than seven concrete trucks are expected per hour. Expect delays while travelling through the intersection.
