SmartTrack
Stations Program
$1.7 BILLION
The SmartTrack Stations Program will improve transportation
choice within Toronto by leveraging existing transit infrastructure
to serve more people. Combined with Metrolinx’s GO Expansion
Program, the SmartTrack Stations Program will transform heavy rail
infrastructure in Toronto from a regional commuter service into an
urban rapid transit network. The SmartTrack Stations Program, funded
by the City of Toronto (including Federal funding from the Investing in
Canada Infrastructure Program) and the Province of Ontario, will see
five stations constructed at Finch-Kennedy, East Harbour, King-Liberty,
Bloor-Lansdowne, and St. Clair-Old Weston. The SmartTrack Stations
program will expand transit access for Toronto residents travelling
within and beyond the city.
