    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    Brampton Transit seems to do just fine. We can and should make the buses more frequent out in the suburbs among other improvements like TSP or bus lanes. The TRBOT recently released a report on how to do this.

    Make the local transit out in the suburbs useable then.

    GO Transit Midtown Corridor

    Not something I would be against. Keep the GO brand but you could differentiate the different types of services provided. Here's an example: GO Regional Express Rail: All-day 15 min electrified service. GO Intercity: The longer distance services. Ex. Union to Niagara, Union to London. GO...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)
