Reece Martin looks at the impending upgrades all along the GO Lakeshore line in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, and foresees a future where frequent RER-style service on the line will lead to better transportation throughout the GTHA, including a change to how we perceive GO within Toronto itself.
This GO project is mostly about expanding commuter rail service into proper interurban connections rather than strictly rush hour direction focused as it is.
Metrolinx seems serious finally about building more light and heavy rail in the GTA, while most of the BRT developments are happening outside of the City of Toronto (the Scarborough RT being one temporary exception)
Are they going to be ACTUAL BRT or just fancy signs on bus stops?
