HELL YES! Now no more repeating that damn mistake EVER AGAIN!

Would be nice if they had to release the failure. Would go a long way in being transparent.

Does anyone know if the underground pathways are north-south, east-west, or both?

There are 3 entrances, one on the northwest, one on the northeast and one south. They are all interconnected.

Only the north side entrances are connected with a fare-free walkthrough

That’s unfortunate not everyone can use it to cross Eglinton.

Shhhh... If they hear that, they'll never tell us!

They've moved the fencing closer to the building at Leaside Station, too. Taken this morning

Edit: adding more photos taken after work of Leaside and Laird stations in those threads. Fences are moved/gone at 3/4 entrance buildings

Would it be fair to say the Eglinton LRT will not be opening in 2025? especially considering Finch West LRT won't open until December 7 and following this we head into the holiday season.

Finch West LRT could open Dec. 7, sources say

Ontario government officials say the Line 6 Finch West LRT will be fully transferred to the TTC by Nov. 3.

Honestly, there's probably an internal desire to open the Eglinton LRT this year for optics purposes.

Continually pushing it to next year doesn't look good on anyone. Opening Line 6 before Line 5 will also raise alot more questions than answers.

Now having said that nothing would surprise me at this point.

The second phase of the REM in Montreal will open end of November. It started roughly the same time as this line did. The optics of this, plus Finch cannot be good.

I think the TYSSE opened on Dec. 17, so it may not matter much regarding the holiday season.

Yes but the Subway is underground, the LRT is not. I doubt they would want the thing to be hindered by a bit of snow during a media event.

They would pick an underground station like Mount Dennis, Eglinton or Kennedy Station to do that. For Line 6, they can pick Finch West Station.
