Why is This Construction Happening?
Metrolinx is upgrading the Union Station Rail Corridor (USRC) as part of a 10-year transformation of the GO rail system. This work will support the new Ontario Line, which will add 15 stops and over 40 connections to other transit lines, including GO trains, subways, LRTs, streetcars, and buses. The Ontario Line will reduce travel time to 30 minutes from end to end and remove 28,000 cars from the road daily.
