Still no confirmed start date? Hopefully they continue right after the Pan Am games.

Metrolinx says it remains on track to begin regular train service to the new James Street GO Station in time for the Pan Am Games next July.
Construction at the site has hit a couple of road bumps, including the inadvertent dumping of cement by a subcontractor into a city sewer and the late rebuild by CN of the nearby Bay Street bridge.
Metrolinx spokesperson Alex Burke said the new station will be ready for passengers next summer but work will continue after it opens on landscaping and an urban plaza.
Dedicated train service, at least two trains in and out each day, will be provided during the Pan Am Games in July.
City transportation planning manager Al Kirkpatrick said Pan Am planners are mulling the possibility of additional Games trains, but are still wrestling with the logistics.
The city is still waiting on a confirmed start date and schedule for regular GO train service to James Street.
