Did you know that Broadway-City Hall will have 4 levels instead of 3? That's because of this Canada Line platform level.
On this level, passengers can reach the Canada Line northbound platform, go up to the station entrance (left) or down to the Millennium Line (right). https://x.com/broadwaysubway_/status/1895168328441774375
Here, geotechnical engineers survey the end of the tunnels at Arbutus Station.
Using a tape extensometer, they measure the precise distance between fixed points in the tunnel, which can detect changes in tunnel alignment. This ensures that the tunnels are constructed safely. https://x.com/broadwaysubway_/status/1894447664395129047
Here’s a look at the platform level of Mount Pleasant Station. Up above, we can see that the concourse-level floor at this station has been completed.
Do you see the gaps in the concourse-level floor? Stairs, escalators and elevators will be installed in these gaps. https://x.com/broadwaysubway_/status/1899145397941215326
This must be to the newer office building at Oak and Broadway:
This tunnel is for the emergency exit at Oak-VGH Station, and connects to stairs in a neighbouring building.
Before the building was built, the @CityofVancouver worked to reserve space for the exit. This early coordination helped integrate the new SkyTrain Station efficiently. https://x.com/broadwaysubway_/status/1897709198105878566
Planned construction activities for the next three months include:
Installing tracks on the elevated guideway and within the tunnels;
Installing the crew walkway, lighting and communications systems in the tunnels;
Constructing walls and columns at all six new underground stations;
Constructing the concourse floor at Oak-VGH, South Granville and Arbutus stations;
Constructing the underground station roof at all six stations;
Constructing the concrete base slab at Broadway-City Hall Station on the Canada Line platform level;
Extending the Canada Line platform to 50 metres at Broadway-City Hall Station; and
Constructing the underground passenger connections between the Millennium Line extension and the Canada Line at Broadway-City Hall Station.
I get that reference.
Actuallly I saw a concrete truck about this size in Japan. Looked like it was built on a Kei platform. It drove by faster than I could take a photo (and it looked different than this) but it was the cutest thing.
