Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

[EYorker]

This might be a bit cryptic. I noticed on the Metrolinx TBM tracker site (https://maps.metrolinx.com/arcgis/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=cfb19fbab99a4cc381ddfb533998cc5f) that the Scarborough TBM disappeared about a week or 2 ago. Could be nothing. Could be something.

Last seen eastbound under the Oak ridge Moraine seeking freedom.

This was noted at the McCowan Carhouse event last week, but it’s also in the CEO’s report. November 18 will be the last day of Scarborough RT service.

Grangeway & Progress. Half the site is fenced off and with Stragbag signage on it:

Has anyone heard on the TBM progress? It supposedly launched 6 months ago. There's radio silence on all channels about it.

I'm reliably told that the TBM is stuck and in need of some very time consuming repairs.

I"m extremely surprised it hasn't been leaked to the press

The main station building is contemplated to be on the east side of McCowan, which is ~260M to the nearest mall entrance, through the cinema

However, there is to be an entrance on the west side of McCowan which will somewhat closer.

Here you go:

Orange is the main station building, red is a residential twin tower with a secondary station entrance.

Thx, much better, I guess that 2nd entry point isn't too far from the main mall entrance

For context, the staging area is the only area not outlined in orange in this pic lol
