The Eglinton Crosstown LRT opening may again be delayed, with uncertainty surrounding the September timeline. TTC interim CEO Greg Percy indicated that September is optimistic, though fall or year-end is more plausible. Originally set to open in 2020, the line has faced ongoing technical problems and cost overruns since construction began in 2011. Safety and customer experience are critical concerns before opening, which is ultimately decided by Metrolinx. Newly appointed TTC CEO Mandeep Lali emphasizes the importance of reliability in the agency moving forward, highlighting substantial ongoing construction projects.
The opening of the Eglinton Crosstown light rail transit line may be postponed again, with the current expectation being something might happen this fall, but September seems unlikely.
Construction on the Eglinton Crosstown line commenced in 2011 and was initially expected to launch in 2020. Over time, technical issues and cost overruns have led to multiple delays.
