  • Eglinton Crosstown Open House Panels Pt. 3
    Don Mills Station (Bus Terminal) At Open House 2 in June/July 2009, two alternatives were shown for the interchange with the Don Mills LRT. The preferred alternative is for the Don Mills LRT to operate at surface with an underground Eglinton LRT station. This alternative will improve the speed and reliability of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT through this busy intersection and will provide a safer and more convenient transfer between the two LRT lines and the bus terminal. 41 Wynford Stop At Open House 2 in June/July 2009, two alternatives were shown for this area. The preferred alternative shown here eliminates the need to climb stairs between Wynford Drive and the LRT. 42 Victoria Park Stop (Re-routed Left Turn) Northbound and southbound left turns are currently prohibited LRT Platform 43 Pharmacy Stop (U-turn) Northbound and southbound left turns from Pharmacy will be re-routed to the U-turn traffic signals shown on this panel. Motorists will proceed through the intersection, make a U-turn and then turn right similar to the U-turn routing shown on Eglinton Avenue. LRT Platform 44 Birchmount Stop (U-turn) 45 Kennedy Station 46 Traction Power Substations Traction power substations (TPS) provide system power to light rail vehicles and are planned with an average spacing of 1.5 kilometres along the surface sections and 2.0 kilometres along the underground sections. The specific locations of the traction power substations are shown in the roll-out drawing. 47 Emergency Exit Buildings An emergency exit building (EEB) is part of an emergency egress system that also includes a common stairwell vestibule between the twin tunnels, leading up to the surface level.
