Good Day.
Fair Question.
Take a look at post #934 this thread from J.OT13, the last photo from the east end of the flyover looking west. They have pretty much already used all the space between property and the 174 westbound and the guideway.
The lines of these three elements continues eastward below the photo. It had been a squeeze already during the ramp construction to get the westbound lanes in there with constructor space, so IMHO, no - just plain no room left.
Plenty of space to the eastbound side as Richard Eade noted, but ....... . Beats me how they would finagle a station without moving rail.
As for a Tenth Line station - we have not seen how the alignment works in and about the bridge here, so - open question, but I have my severe doubts.
The 174 / guideway RoW had to be widened under all the other bridges, and ancilliary work done, so I see no reason Tenth Line would be any different.
And FYI to my previous post #987 this thread about where I had seen a more recent east schedule bar diagram, J.OT13 post #930 this thread from 2021 Dec 17 per Kate Porter CBC twitter.
EnJoy!
