Two questions, the TBM is heading east right ? Can someone draw a circle where the tbm will be dropped in

Question 2: will exhibition stop be at grade or below grade ?

The TBM is massive, pretty much the entirety of the trench shown in the 1st picture
Exhibition is at-grade, but they need to get down deep to start the tunneling there.

And for the foundation, which has to carry the mass of the stations, trains, and people.
