Metrolinx expanding its GO Transit service Monday, adding new rush hour train trips | CBC News
"In an email statement, Metrolinx said it would be adding six new rush hour trips three in the morning and three in the afternoon on the Lakeshore East line. One of the added morning trips will leave from Durham College Oshawa GO to Union Station, while the other two will leave from Whitby GO in the direction of Toronto's downtown core."
"The Stouffville line will also see two new rush hour trips. One train will depart from Unionville GO at 7:59 a.m., making all station stops until its arrival at Union Station at 8:40 a.m. The second trip will depart from Union Station at 4:50 p.m. and arrive at Unionville GO by 5:31 p.m. The Barrie line will see an added trip departing from Aurora GO at 7:20 a.m. and arriving at Union Station at 8:14 a.m."
"Finally, all trips southbound on the Richmond Hill line are set to depart up to seven minutes earlier, Metrolinx said. The new Confederation GO station is also set to bring convenience to the Lakeshore West line, connecting Toronto's downtown core to Hamilton. Ontario Premier Doug Ford, Hamilton Mayor Andrea Horwath, several other local politicians and the CEO of Metrolinx announced at the end of September that construction on the station had been completed."
