Metrolinx Announcement – Upcoming Construction Impacts – GO Expansion

 GO service is expanding to serve you better – with more frequent service, more stations, cleaner technology, and more connections.

 

As part of investigative work for the GO Expansion project, crews will be drilling vertical boreholes to assess ground conditions within the Lakeshore West rail corridor. This work will support future track and infrastructure updates.

 

Starting Monday, July 8th, drilling is scheduled to take place overnight for approximately 5 months. Borehole drilling is sequenced and moves throughout the rail corridor as work progresses. Daytime working hours are scheduled whenever possible; however, some activities are required to take place overnight when trains are not in service.

 

Residents may experience some noise and minor vibration from the drill and other construction vehicles or equipment.  Noise and vibration monitoring will take place and mitigation measures will be applied as required. Work will take place within the rail corridor.  We apologize for any inconvenience and ask for your patience as we complete this critical work.

 

The attached notice has been mailed to residents impacted by this construction along the Lakeshore West Corridor. We will also be featuring this construction notice in our newsletter and on Metrolinx.com.
