The rest looks great and is a welcome improvement, however much I wish it went the whole way down Duke.I would suspect that that portion is on hold pending the construction of the transit hub.
Duke St will be closed to vehicular traffic and a new pedestrian/cycling underpass will be constructed.
I think the Victoria St MUT is decoupled from the transit hub itself: https://www.engagewr.ca/victoria-street-modifications
So we may see that built first.
I can't remember where I read this (maybe on UrbanToronto) but I recall the track works and platform relocation (which will close Duke St to cars) is Metrolinx's responsibility and will happen before the transit hub itself is built.
So in other words, all of the active transportation benefits don't depend on the transit hub.
