  The East Indian Railway brought its new Howrah terminus, designed by Halsey Ricardo, into service across the Hooghly from Kolkata, replacing the original 1854 station building. Its North Wing's six platforms were built to absorb traffic that had grown sharply since the Bengal-Nagpur Railway opened its Calcutta Extension Line into Howrah in 1900.

Construction start: Metrolinx's project timeline lists "Project groundbreaking at Exhibition Station March 2022" - the ceremony with Premier Ford and Mayor Tory on 27 Mar 2022 (Toronto Star/CBC^[3]/Global News, 27 Mar 2022); the old 2031 date was the target opening, not a construction date. Completion: Metrolinx CEO Michael Lindsay, 18 Feb 2026 (CBC): "the plan is to open the Ontario Line by the early 2030s, potentially later than the 2031 target" - "we think we're still trending towards the early 2030s to be done with civil infrastructure"; CBC, 11 Aug 2026: "Most recently, Metrolinx has said it will be done sometime in the early 2030s" - so the end keeps the last dated target, 2031, which is likely to slip.

  Toronto's Ontario Line, a new subway line meant to relieve one of North America's most congested cities, is under construction with its budget already well past the original estimate.
