AECOM Technology Corporation, a leading provider of professional technical and management support services for government and commercial clients around the world, today announced that it has been selected to provide architectural and engineering services to the Toronto Transit Commission for design of the Sheppard West and Highway 407 stations on its Toronto-York Spadina Subway Extension project.
The contract value for this project is estimated to be approximately $20 CAD million. Construction on the 5.4-mile (8.6-kilometre), six-station extension is scheduled for completion in late 2015. Once completed, service on the line will include stations at York University and the Vaughan Corporate Centre.
“We are excited to play a key role in an effort that will extend Toronto’s mass transit system into York Region, enhancing area residents’ quality of life and sustaining the local environment,” said AECOM President and Chief Executive Officer John M. Dionisio.
The estimated project cost for the subway extension is $2.63 CAD billion.
