A tunnel boring machine has reached the future King West station site, marking a key step in the province's transit project.

The Ontario Line project has reached a significant construction milestone. According to reporting from CBC Toronto, a tunnel boring machine has successfully drilled through more than one kilometre of bedrock to arrive at the site where the future King West station will be located.

While the milestone represents physical progress on the line, the development raises questions regarding the actual timeline for when commuters will be able to utilize the service.
