Canada's construction news
CITY OF TORONTO—A City of Toronto report depicts a micro-tunnelling boring machine entangled in a steel tieback in a tunnel on Old Mill Drive.
Crews mobilized around 7 a.m. yesterday and the tail of the micro-tunneling boring machine was removed around 8:15 a.m. by a crew of eight workers, a City of Toronto spokesperson reported. In April 2022, the $3 million machine was being used to construct a new 900-millimetre-diameter stormsewer along Old Mill Drive as part of the Basement Flooding Protection Program when it became entangled in steel tiebacks underground that were leftover from the building of a condo development.
