Station Manager, Construction Technical Office in Toronto

Ferrovial Construction Canada Inc. and VINCI Construction Grands Projets are undertaking the design, build, and finance the Ontario Line Southern Civil, Stations, and Tunnel (South Civil) package. As Ontario Transit Group, we are now mobilizing our design and construction crews, with major works. The South Civil contract is anticipated to be completed in 2030. The project will strengthen Ontario's economy by supporting an estimated 1,500 jobs at the peak of construction.

The project includes a six-kilometer tunnel and associated tunnelling works from Exhibition to Don Yard portal (west of the Don River), with one above-ground station integrated with the existing GO Transit Exhibition Station and two underground stations integrated with the existing TTC Osgoode and Queen subway stations. Additionally, four new underground stations (King/Bathurst, Queen/Spadina, Moss Park, Corktown) will be constructed.

The benefits to Ontario include:

• Faster, more frequent, and reliable access to rapid transit for over 227,500 people living within a 10-minute walk of an Ontario Line station.
• Improved quality of life for commuters by reducing daily travel time.
• Reduced crowding on the existing Line 1 (Yonge-University) subway.
• Increased accessibility to up to 57,000 more jobs by transit for Toronto residents.
• Economic and community growth along the future transit line and thousands of job opportunities annually during construction.
• Reduction in traffic congestion, greenhouse gases, and fuel consumption by providing an alternative transportation option.
