I think this fits best here..........Mx is releasing a pre-qualification tender for work for the Queen Streetcar Detour project, which is a pre-requisite for construction of the central section of the Ontario Line.

We're on post #20,000 and some odd. And seven years of construction. We should hit 60,000 in this discussion by the opening....

I realize there's an election thread here: https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/2022-43rd-ontario-general-election-june-2-2022.32841/page-12
But in case it's of interest this is being distributed:

Pick one.
Edit: not trying to be a dick, but the above choice is true. For the record, I support elevated in Scarborough, on Sheppard, Eglinton West and past my windows on Yonge North.

It's just so hard to vote NDP these days, even if they are the most closely aligned to my beliefs.

Partially on topic, but should this thread title be updated to "Under Construction" from "In Design"?
We've officially broken ground and started construction on this project.

I know we had a ceremony but has construction actually started? None of the major contracts have even been awarded.

How long do they want to delay this for so that they can plan this? Also, is this just him campaigning on this or is the whole party behind it?

There's been demolition at Exhibition & Cork Town as part of the 'early works'. I would consider that 'under construction'.

The NDP's platform doesn't say anything that would make me think so but it is concerning that he's making these promises. Either the party agrees with him or they really need to discipline their MPs so that they don't promise anything that goes against their platform. It'd be acceptable if he would advocate for this, even though I disagree with meddling in active transit projects, but to outright promise to put the OL underground is wrong and creates confusion.
Personally, I would support more community improvements, a commitment to good design, refining the TOCs through a normal planning process, and cancelling the First Parliament TOC - but not anything that would delay or jeopardize the delivery and many positive aspects of this project.
