Ontario premier says construction underway on new Toronto subway line

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says the provincial government has begun construction on a new subway project in Toronto that will cut through the heart of the city.

Ford said the 15.6 kilometre Ontario Line, with 14 subway stops, is designed to provide relief from overcrowding on Toronto Transit Commission's Line 1 and is an important part of his government's plan to build roads, bridges, highways and transit.

"For decades, governments of every stripe have been talking about the need for new subways in the GTA. They've been studying it forever. There have been endless reports, endless committees, but finally, we're the government that got it done," Ford said at the site of the future Exhibition station
