Infrastructure Ontario (IO) has announced that Request for Proposals (RFP) stage is closed for teams submitting bids for the SRS package (stations, rail and systems) for the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension (ECWE).
The SRS package includes design and construction of seven stations and installation of rail and systems for the 9.2 km extension, as well as works at the existing Mount Dennis station to connect the ECWE with future Eglinton Crosstown LRT service.
Following a fair, open and transparent Request for Qualifications process, three teams were prequalified and invited to respond to an RFP in September 2024. The SRS package is being delivered using a progressive design-build delivery model. The following teams submitted proposals by the deadline:
Integrated Transit Partners
- Applicant Leads: Sacyr Canada, NGE Contracting, and Clearway Construction
- Design Team: Hatch, Egis Canada, and Weston Williamson Partners
- Construction Team: NGE Contracting, Sacyr Canada, and Clearway Construction
Trillium Rail Partners

WestEx Transit Solutions

Infrastructure Ontario and Metrolinx are evaluating proposals, and a team will be selected to enter into a development phase with Metrolinx, anticipated for summer 2025. The development phase allows for a collaborative approach between Metrolinx as the project owner and the successful contracting partner to work together to finalize the scope, risk allocation and pricing of various elements for the SRS package of work.
The 9.2 km Eglinton Crosstown West extension consists of four major packages of work: the SRS package contract; the first advance tunnel contract from Renforth Drive to Scarlett Road; the second advance tunnel contract from Jane Street to Mount Dennis Station; and the elevated guideway contract between Scarlett Road and Jane Street.
The ECWE project is being delivered through various Public-Private-Partnership, progressive design-build and traditional procurement contracts, which are being staggered to support their successful delivery.
