Went for a wee visit to Renforth Station.... Took some of the closeout of the tunnel entrance work.

Been a bit since my last update of the Scarlett Rd portal and station. The roof of the TBM shaft has been completed, I think it was just waterproofed (with tar by the smell of it).

As well (no photos) the track bed of the portal ramp appears to be about a metre below the current access road (between the chainlink fences in the picture below), which I assume means the site access road will be removed before construction of the viaduct and station

Bonus: a little cameo from a celebrity building
The One is now visible from just east of Scarlett Road (and at the top of the stairs on the NW corner, but I didn't get a photo from there. Should be a good view of downtown from Scarlett station once completed.

Crombie unveils plan to address safety concerns on Toronto transit system​

Ontario Liberal Leader Bonnie Crombie has pledged to install platform barriers at all Toronto subway stations, increase crisis intervention teams and hire more constables for transit services across the province.​

Does that mean the Eglinton West Line 5 extension will include platform doors?

(If Line 5 will not open in 2025, will they install platform doors on current Eglinton Crosstown LRT underground stations while we wait for the opening?)

I think it was already confirmed that every new Metrolinx project will include PSDs, including the SSE and YNSE.
