Enbridge continues relocating gas lines on Finch Avenue West to prepare for the upcoming project. Enbridge must move the natural gas pipelines to a lower site under the roadway, deeper beneath the future track-bed.

Enbridge continues relocating gas lines on Finch Avenue West to prepare for the project. Its crews must move the natural gas pipelines from the centre of the roadway (the proposed location of the new track-bed) to the south side of Finch Avenue West between Kipling Avenue and east of Islington Avenue.

“Late March 2017” (possibly as early as Monday, March 20), crews start phase 1 of the project, occupying a section of the roadway

• at the intersection of Finch Avenue West with Kipling Avenue,

near the site of the future Kipling stop, as crews dig a trench and install the gas line in its new location.

They also work

• on Finch Avenue West between Kipling Avenue and 400 metres east of Kipling Avenue.

During working hours, the work zone may restrict traffic on the east- and westbound lanes of Finch West and on the north- and southbound lanes of Kipling Avenue or block the entire roadway for a short term. All roads reopen evenings after working hours for local residents. Driveways will be accessible to residents at all times. Expect delays.

Crews mostly work from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. Mondays to Saturdays. Occasionally, they may work late nights, early mornings or Sundays to complete this phase of the project on time.

TTC passengers aboard buses along these routes can expect delays:

• 36 Finch West;
• 45A / 45E Kipling;
• 336 Finch West overnight; and
• 337 Islington overnight.

The TTC may also temporarily relocate bus stops as construction proceeds.

Enbridge continues relocating the gas lines at Kipling Avenue and east of Kipling “for approximately three months”, or until about June 24.

(Updated — Wednesday, May 10, 12:57 p.m.) Gas-line relocation activity on the south side of Finch Avenue West east of Kipling Avenue.
