Why didn’t the original project plan include burying the hydro lines along St. Clair?
A request to bury the Toronto Hydro overhead lines was initiated during the public consultation workshops that were held after the Environmental Assessment for the transit improvement project was approved. While this is not part of the original transit improvement project, the City and TTC are working closely with Toronto Hydro to coordinate this work. Toronto Hydro lines will be buried between Vaughan and McRoberts, which should be completed before the end of 2007.
