TORONTO RENEWS COMMUTER FOCUS

Abstract

Toronto's commuter rail service is planning to return to previous high levels as the first step in a new provincial plan this fall (1995). It gives commuters priority for helping to avert mobility problems as the areas' population swells by 50 percent in the next 25 to 30 years. The plan calls for a 23.5 percent increase in Ontario's annual capital investment in GO transit to $105 million (C), plus a boost in operating assistance. The commuter system's further improvement will accompany the already-launched expansion of Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) rapid transit lines and better integration of municipal transit services in the Toronto area.
