CONCRETE POUR AT LAIRD STATION

On March 6, 2020, crews will perform a concrete pour at the Main Entrance of Laird Station. Work will begin as early as 5:00am and the pour will be ongoing until approximately 7:00pm. Laird Avenue and Eglinton Avenue East will remain open while work takes place. 

 WHAT TO EXPECT

  • Approximately 54 concrete trucks will be required, an average of 5 trucks per hour.
  • Three trucks will be staged at a time inside of the Main Entrance site.
  • Because concrete pours require continuous supply of a truck staging area will occupy one southbound lane on Laird Drive.
  • Trucks will enter the north side of the construction site from Eglinton Avenue East and leave from the east side of the site on to Laird Drive.

 HOURS OF WORK

  • As early as March 6, 2020 for one (1) day.
  • The concrete pour will begin at 5:00 a.m. and continue until 7:00 p.m.
  • In the event of inclement weather, this work may be rescheduled.


TRAFFIC IMPACTS  

  • A temporary closure of one southbound lane on Laird Drive south of Eglinton Avenue East.
  • Increased truck traffic travelling through the area.

PEDESTRIAN AND TTC IMPACTS

  • There will be no new impacts to existing pedestrian routes or TTC stops.
