Faster, easier connections.

The Ontario Line in Toronto will create faster, easier connections, and make travel within Toronto more efficient. The 15.6-kilometre, 15-stop subway line will run from Exhibition Place, through the heart of downtown, and all the way to the Ontario Science Centre. It’s currently the largest subway expansion project in North America! The project involves a mix of surface, elevated, and underground tracks to limit the amount of tunnelling and excavation needed.

Thurber provided geotechnical, geo-environmental, and hydrogeological services during early works and detailed design for the portals, stations, tunnels, shafts, and bridges.

“Thurber’s professionalism does not go unnoticed and is very much a benefit to the OL Program” – Principal Project Manager, HDR
