GO/VIA Transit
New GO trains for Hamilton?
The Hamilton Spectator Wire Services
Hamilton could see express GO rail service from downtown Toronto to Hamilton, as well as Oshawa, Brampton, Richmond Hill and Mississauga, running every 15 minutes, every day.
That revelation comes from a confidential draft plan for combatting commuter congestion in the Toronto area.
The report calls for spending $55 billion over 25 years on a network of new subway light-rail lines, improved commuter rail, express bus routes and longer, wider roads.
The blueprint was drawn up by Metrolinx, the provincial transportation agency.
A copy was obtained by The Globe and Mail, which published details today.
Check back for further details later.
