"Moley" Tunnelling Underway - Sheppard West Subway Station and the Southern Tunnels

November 2, 2011

This October the Tunnel Boring Machine “Moley” began tunnelling operations from the launch shaft at the Sheppard West Station site and is headed towards our Finch West Station site. “Moley” can tunnel or “bore” up to 15 metres a day. “Moley” is anticipated to reach the Finch West Station site in early 2012. You may follow the tunnelling progress for “Holey” and “Moley” on our website under "Tunnelling Progress" .
