GO RER, SmartTrack, Scarborough Subway Extension, the Relief Line, fare integration, and more... The list of transit projects in the works—or undergoing study—for our region is long. With such a large number of initiatives planned for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA), residents across the region will have the opportunity to learn more about the various projects that will impact their communities, and to share their thoughts.
Got any questions or concerns? Metrolinx wants to hear them. Over the next two months, the Provincial transit agency has planned a series of comprehensive public consultations has been scheduled throughout the GTHA, each of which will allow residents to give their feedback on the infrastructure projects that will impact on their communities.
