Carillion awarded GBP123 million contract for Vaughan Corporate
Centre Station, Ontario
Carillion Canada has been awarded the contract to construct
Vaughan Corporate Centre Station, by the Toronto Transit
Commission. This GBP123 million contract, which forms part of the
Toronto to York Spadina Subway Extension project, follows
Carillion's success in being awarded a GBP360 million construction
management contract for the revitalisation of Toronto's Union
Station.
Vaughan Corporate Centre Station will be the anchor station to
the 8.6 km subway line extension from Downsview Station on the
Spadina line in the City of Toronto, to the City of Vaughan.
The two-level, underground station will be a multi-modal
transportation hub with on-street passenger pick-up and drop-off
and connections to regional bus networks. The station will be
constructed primarily from reinforced concrete, with-high-quality
architectural finishes and a distinctive domed main entrance, which
will have integrated skylights that will allow daylight to reach
the underground concourse. The concourse will have multiple
knockout panels to allow for future rail connections. Construction
will start in the Summer of 2011, with completion scheduled for the
Autumn of 2014.
Commenting, Carillion Chief Executive, John McDonough, said: "We
are delighted to have been awarded this major new contract, which
reflects the reputation of Carillion Canada for quality and
delivery. We look forward to working with the Toronto Transit
Commission to deliver this important new multi-modal transport
hub."
