The Ontario Line is an under-construction rapid transit line in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Its northern terminus will be at Eglinton Avenue and Don Mills Road, at Science Centre station, where it will connect with Line 5 Eglinton. Its southern terminus will be at the existing Exhibition GO Station on the Lakeshore West line. The Ontario Line was announced by the Government of Ontario on April 10, 2019.[7][8] As of November 2022, the estimated cost for the 15.6-kilometre (9.7 mi) line is CA$17 to $19 billion with an estimated completion in 2031.[5] Originally, the cost was estimated at $10.9 billion with completion by 2027.[7][6] A groundbreaking ceremony for the project took place on March 27, 2022.[9] Upon opening, the plan is for the line to assume the "Line 3" name,[10] which was used by Line 3 Scarborough until its closure in July 2023.[11]
