You've reached houseoftools.ca, a small fan site about Western Canadian construction jobs and old shop tools. And by "fan site" I mean none of us worked for the original House of Tools chain that closed down in 2009 or run houseoftools.net... we just liked the old stores, we don't have any social accounts... and blah, blah, blah.

All 5.7 Kilometres of Track Are Down Under Broadway.

Posted by Priya Sandhu in Burnaby on November 12, 2026. Every time I transfer at Broadway-City Hall I peek through the fence on Cambie to see what changed! Crews finished laying all 5.7 kilometres of underground running rail and linear induction track on the Broadway Subway extension in September 2026 ahead of late-2027 trains (photo by Northwest).

Please double check anything you read on here before taking our word for it! No part of this fan website is legally binding, we never post construction or engineering advice, and we never tell anyone how to do a building job.
