From Monday, July 21, 2014 onwards, pedestrian access to Eglinton West Station will be re-routed to facilitate the construction of the extraction shaft in the vicinity of the southbound Allen Road Ramp.
Please watch for posted signs detouring pedestrians in the area and take care when travelling near construction areas.
Metrolinx has been working closely with the City of Toronto, the TTC, elected officials, and police to monitor the situation and to consider modifications to current arrangement that allow Crosstown construction to continue on schedule, alleviate some of the traffic congestion and, ensure the safety of pedestrians along Eglinton Avenue.
Transforming transit across the middle of Toronto involves significant road works. Construction will be visible along the corridor and on some side streets. There will be short-term local street closures and turning restrictions to allow for the construction to take place. Adjustments to the local road configurations, work zones and other day to day items such as signage and temporary adjustments will be implemented, as necessary.
