The Eglinton Crosstown LRT began 30-day testing ahead of a potential November opening, despite ongoing technical issues and years of delays.
The Eglinton Crosstown LRT has begun its 30-day revenue service demonstration, the final testing phase before public operation, though no opening date has been set.
Metrolinx confirmed the start of testing, which involves running trains on the full public schedule to assess safety, reliability, and operations.
Despite progress, ongoing issues include braking wear, HVAC and communications problems, and the need for improved winter maintenance.

Officials stress the system will only open when safe, with November being the earliest possible timeframe if no major issues arise.
