Making improvements to more than just the platforms under your feet
As part of the Platform Improvement Project, with each completed station you'll find safer and more accessible platforms, along with an enhanced station experience that will bring a higher level of safety, convenience and communication.
Stations will have new stainless-steel platform shelters conveniently equipped with charging ports, new Passenger Information Displays (PIDS) with larger 55-inch screens, and new platform intercom speakers for clearer public announcements and emergency notifications. Below are some highlights of the improvements being made at the six stations. Scroll to the bottom of the page for a complete list of improvements.
Slip-resistant tile
Stations will feature new hexagonal tiles that are slip-resistant and match the original station tile design. These new tiles are being placed throughout the stations - on the platforms and in the mezzanines. The tiles are produced through a process called wire-cutting, which provides better traction in wet conditions.
New platform shelters
Stainless-steel platform shelters equipped with charging ports are also being installed. Each shelter will have new windscreens to provide protection from the elements. The digital displays will replace static maps and have the capability to display dynamic content such as service alerts, important messages and emergency information, if needed.
New PIDS
The Passenger Information Display Screens (PIDS) that scroll through next arriving trains, service alerts and other announcements are being upgraded to 55-inch screens. There will also be twice as many on each platform, making them more visible from more areas on the platform.
