Eglinton Crosstown LRT opening Feb 8, TTC reportedly tells Premier Doug Ford

After years of delays and issues, the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, Toronto's new Line 5, is set to open on February 8, according to Ontario Premier Doug Ford. Construction began in 2011, with an initial completion date of 2020, but was pushed back due to legal, construction, and testing problems, along with COVID-19-related delays. The line, which will connect Mount Dennis in the west with Kennedy subway station in the east, has faced challenges such as poor construction, signaling system upgrades, and a small collision during final testing. Despite calls for a public inquiry, the Ford government has not agreed to one.

The Progressive Conservative government, which took over the project in 2018, claims to have brought it to 'substantial completion' after years of neglect by the previous Liberal government. Concerns remain about the project’s delays and cost overruns, with comparisons being made to the problematic launch of the Finch West LRT.
