Tunnel Liner Rehabilitation project
The original scope of work for the Yonge subway Tunnel Liner Rehabilitation Project identified the need to repair approximately 620 precast concrete tunnel liner rings as well as the removal of acoustic insulating material on the tunnel liner surface between Eglinton and Sheppard Station
Currently the total number of tunnel liner rings identified for repair has increased to approximately 960 as a result of continuing inspection of the rings as acoustic insulating material is being removed, thus extending the projected project completion date to December 2013.
However, there still is a significant number of tunnel liners that are covered with acoustic insulating material. As this material is removed, the tunnel will be re- inspected and could potentially reveal the need for additional liner repair that could extend the project completion into 2014.
Train service on the YONGE Subway north of Eglinton Station will end early at night, at approximately 12:30 a.m., Sunday to Friday, for necessary tunnel maintenance work. Trains will operate from Downsview Station to Eglinton Station.
A frequent accessible shuttle bus service will replace the subway between Eglinton Station and Finch Station. The replacement buses will serve the bus terminals at Eglinton Station, Lawrence Station, York Mills Station, Sheppard-Yonge Station, and Finch Station.
