From 1-5 p.m. on Oct. 28, customers can get an inside peek into the modern stations being built for the Toronto-York Spadina Subway Extension. Construction teams, and staff from PRESTO, York Region Transit, Brampton Transit, and the TTC will be on hand to answer questions and talk with interested residents. There will also be partners from the Business Associations and the city of Vaughan present.
The following stations will be available for touring:
- Pioneer Village Station, 2800 Steeles Ave. West
- Highway 407 Station, 7332 Jane Street
- Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Station, 3150 Highway 7 West
Architects Will Alsop, David Pearl, and Paul Raff will be at their respective station along with the artists who contributed to its design.
There will be a barbeque lunch in support of the United Way at Pioneer village Station. A shuttle bus will leave Sheppard West Station to Pioneer Village between 12:40 p.m. and 5:15 p.m. There will also be a shuttle bus between the three stops to help commuters get from one end of the line to the other.
The Toronto-York Spadina Subway Extension is set to be operational by the end of 2017.
