The new Moving Ontario Forward plan would work toward phasing in electric train service every 15 minutes on all GO lines.

GO Regional Express Rail would provide faster, more frequent service on GO corridors, in both directions, all day long. The service would create a viable alternative for people driving on busy highways from communities in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) by providing a faster, more flexible way to get in and out of Toronto's downtown core. It would also give commuters within Toronto another way to get downtown by increasing service between GO stations and Union Station. A commuter could get to Union Station from Danforth GO Station in just 9 minutes, or from Bloor GO Station in just 15 minutes.

This is part of the government's long-term transit and infrastructure plan, Moving Ontario Forward. This plan would make nearly $29 billion available over the next 10 years for investments in priority infrastructure projects across the province, including public transit, roads, bridges and highways.

Making smart investments in public transit is part of the government's economic plan that is creating jobs for today and tomorrow. The comprehensive plan and its six priorities focus on Ontario's greatest strengths - its people and strategic partnerships.
