The 35-Day Minister Review is now completed for the Lakeshore East Rail Corridor Expansion Project (Don River to Scarborough GO Station). Notice to Proceed was received on November 20, 2017.

Metrolinx is undertaking one of the largest infrastructure projects in North America. Over the next 10 years, Metrolinx will be working with communities to transform the existing GO rail system and deliver a whole new rapid transit experience that will bring 15-minute, two-way electrified service to the Lakeshore East Rail Corridor.

To introduce these service improvements, the corridor between the Don River and Scarborough GO stations (approximate area) requires additional track capacity to support:

• increasing GO service (Lakeshore East and Stouffville)
• maintaining service reliability
