I think the missing ceiling cladding they may be referring to are the long ?plastic or metal slats, that are removed for various reasons, presumably like a leak, to run some wires, inspect the concrete above it, install a sign etc. but are seemingly never put back.I understand that this is caused by multiple projects simultaneously going on at the same time. Also when an issue is discovered and they need to go back to consult with the TTC it takes time to come to a resolution.
Also timing for other projects might be another thing where you need to wait for crews to finish other projects to come back to the one where they removed the cladding.
I'm probably exaggerating a bit, but in my experience pretty much every station is missing at least a few of those, but sometimes half the ceiling. This has been an issue since as long as I can remember using the subway in Toronto regularly (mid 2000's).
Here is an example of those slats:
Anyway, sorry, I think this is probably off the topic, but these missing slats have been ticking me off for almost two decades.
