The TBM will be on-site at Copeland Station for approximately three months, as it digs 600m to join the existing transmission tunnel beneath the intersection of Lower Simcoe and Front Streets. Creating the tunnel will facilitate a high voltage connection to the station, which will supply power to Toronto’s newest downtown station.
Copeland Station is the first station built downtown by Toronto Hydro since 1955 and will provide much needed additional capacity to serve current and future load requirements in this high-density, high-growth area of Toronto.
