A total of $71.22 million in under-expenditures is driven by the deferred opening of Line 5 Eglinton and Line 6 Finch West, fully offset by reductions in Provincial Funding and Reserve Draws planned to fund Line 5 and Line 6 mobilization activities. The net favourability was also driven by workforce vacancies experienced in the first six months of the year, lower health and dental claims driven by workforce vacancies and lower utilization, delayed IT software implementation, favourable IT contract pricing, lower diesel pricing, and higher passenger revenue due to higher TTC Conventional average fare per ride. Based on preliminary year-end results, the TTC's base capital expenditures totalled $1.271 billion, representing a year-end spending rate of 94.8% of the 2024 Approved Capital Budget. In addition, the TTC also incurred $19.35 million or 95.8% of the 2024 Approved Capital Budget to continue the capital work program for transit-expansion-related initiatives. Combined, the TTC's preliminary year-end spending reached $1.290 billion, representing a 94.8% spending rate overall. The preliminary financial results are subject to the year-end audit process, and the audited financial statements will be presented to the Audit and Risk Management Committee on June 9, 2025, and the TTC Board on June 18, 2025.
