Note: Per consensus and convention, most route-map templates are used in a single article in order to separate their complex and fragile syntax from normal article wikitext. See these discussions [1],[2] for more information. This map depicts the first phase of the reconstruction of station, which took place between 2014 and 2017.
During this phase, Track 1 (the westernmost track) was closed and demolished. Southbound Purple Line Express trains were routed onto Track 2 just south of Lawrence and shared this track with the southbound Red Line trains between Leland Interlocking and Clark Junction. In the morning rush period, southbound express trains made stops at Wilson, Sheridan, and Addison.
The existing structure supporting Track 1 was demolished and replaced with a new structure supporting Track 1 and the southern portion of the new Track 2. At the same time, the new southbound island platform set between Tracks 1 and 2 was constructed.
