Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) has awarded the JV Obrascon Huarte Lain (OHL)/ Fomento de Construcciones y Contratas (FCC) the contract for the construction of the 4.5 km north twin tunnels, the Highway 407 station and the depot area for the Toronto-York Spadina subway extension. Highway 407 Station will be a newly-built underground station 165 m-long, 22 m-wide and 23 m-deep. It will have a central platform and three floors, two below grade and one above grade, forming a Y-shaped building with a bus terminus and open-air parking for 600 cars. The project will be built using two EPBs in three phases: the first, southward to the depot, will be 1,672 m-long; the other two will depart from the 407 Highway Station in different directions: southward to Steeles West Station (1,024 m) and northward to the end of the line (963 m).
