Ontario Liberals demand public inquiry into Eglinton Crosstown LRT construction delays | CBC News

Ontario’s Liberal Caucus is demanding a public inquiry into the delays of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT project, which has been under construction for nearly 16 years with no opening date. The Liberals are calling for compensation for affected businesses, a rapid response task force, and guarantees against similar issues in future projects. The Progressive Conservative government, which took over the project in 2018, claims to have brought it to 'substantial completion' after years of neglect by the previous Liberal government. Concerns remain about the project’s delays and cost overruns, with comparisons being made to the problematic launch of the Finch West LRT.
