Bombardier to Shift Production to Hasten Delivery of TTC Streetcars
Bombardier Inc. is lightening the workload on its passenger rail-car plant in Thunder Bay in an attempt to speed up delivery on a problem-plagued contract for new streetcars in Toronto.
The company confirmed Thursday that it will shift production on one of four contracts the plant is currently executing to another facility in Kingston – specifically, its $770-million contract with Ontario’s regional transit agency Metrolinx – as of October.
