Good News for Milton GO transit riders

As outlined in the Champion this week, it looks like there will be more trains headed to Union Station from Milton in the coming months.

This will be a welcome addition for the many people who use the GO train on a daily basis.  From personal experience I know how much time contstraints are on the riders given the limited number of trains.  One more in the morning and the evening will be well received.

I know first hand that a large number of people who use this GO train come from outside Milton as well.  From as far as Kitchener and Cambridge people make their way down the 401 to Main Street to catch one of the few trains to help them in their commuting ways.

Also outlined in that article is the fact that GO Transit is looking at doing a study for all day service.  Before you start jumping up and down, its not going to happen for a long time, if it ever does.  Many things will have to fall into place, including a transfer at 401 and Tremaine Road to accomodate more traffic headed to the station, new tracks along the route towards Union and of course the big thing…CASH!

Still good to hope that it might happen.
