At the end of May the 2nd and final shipment of TBM parts for the Broadway Subway Project arrived! Now assembly of the first TBM is under way at the future GNW-Emily Carr Station site. On 14/06/2022 the bottom of the TBM's front shield, which will sit behind the cutterhead, was placed into a concrete cradle as the machine begins to take shape.
Each TBM weighs about 1000 t. the TBMs will be assembled 1 at a time at the GNW – Emily Carr Station site and launched separately to create 2 tunnels about 5 km long for the project.
