Metrolinx Appoints Mace, Comtech and SYSTRA to Transform Journeys Across Toronto

The MCS consortium has been awarded the contract for Delivery Partner Services to support Metrolinx’s Scarborough Subway Extension and Yonge North Subway Extension in the Greater Toronto Area, Canada.

The MCS consortium – made up of Mace, Comtech and SYSTRA – is pleased to announce it has been awarded the contract for Delivery Partner Services to support Metrolinx’s Scarborough Subway Extension and Yonge North Subway Extension in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), Canada. These multi-billion-dollar projects will extend the Toronto Transit Commission’s (TTC’s) existing subway network by approximately 16 kilometres and accommodate nearly 200,000 trips each day.

MCS will integrate as a delivery partner with Metrolinx’s team to support these significant subway projects. Already, the three firms are working as an integrated team with Metrolinx, supporting the delivery of the rail infrastructure program, GO Expansion, which was awarded in a Program Delivery Partner contract at the start of 2022. As with GO Expansion, the Scarborough Subway Extension and Yonge North Subway Extension are set to have a transformative impact on local communities in Ontario, helping to reduce travel times and improve access to jobs, schools and other important destinations throughout the region.




The Scarborough Subway Extension will bring subway service nearly eight kilometres farther into Toronto’s east end, providing quick and seamless transit for those heading into and out of downtown Toronto and those travelling within Scarborough. Meanwhile, the Yonge North Subway Extension will extend subway service approximately eight kilometres from the existing Finch Station into the cities of Markham, Vaughan and Richmond Hill. Once complete, both projects will connect with local and GO Transit services.

Having already collaborated successfully on GO Expansion for the past year, Mace, Comtech and SYSTRA bring a highly compatible skillset to the delivery partner approach on these subway extension projects. Mace draws on global best practice from its successful role as a delivery partner on the London 2012 Olympic Games and the mobilization of large integrated teams on major infrastructure programs.

Meanwhile, Comtech leverages its local expertise in program delivery and digital transformation working within Metrolinx’s capital projects portfolio, and the French engineering firm SYSTRA brings an extensive international track record in rail construction, operations and maintenance.
