Hello members,
My apologies if this is the incorrect forum. I am looking for TTC and Go Transit proposed/official expansion plans for the next 5-10 years.
Where can I source that information?
Many many thanks!

Really no single source for that kind of info.
TTC is fairly simple. GO has a lot more going on.
Spadina subway extension opens in less than a month.
Eglinton Crosstown - 2021
Finch LRT - 2022
Scarborough Subway - 2026
Go is going to have a lot of phased upgrades over the next 10 years, and a lot of projects with no specific date.
GO extensions
Niagara - phased between 2019 and 2023
Bowmanville - unspecified, probably 2024 or 2025
RER service is the upgrading of go service to 15 minute frequencies running all day, most with in service dates of 2024 / 2025.
RER will run on the following stretches:
Lakeshore West - Aldershot to Union
Lakeshore East - Oshawa to Union
Stouffville - Unionville to Union
Barrie - Aurora to Union
Kitchener - Bramalea to Union
There are additionally some new all day services planned on hourly frequencies, as follows. Again, the only dates mentioned are 2024/2025, though these could come earlier.
Hamilton - hourly express from Oakville service all day to Union
Stouffville - from Mount Joy to Union
Barrie - From Barrie to Union
Kitchener is supposed to be getting some sort of all day service as well, though it is a much more complicated process, with unspecified dates and exact service levels. It is expected to be done a bit later, probably 2026 or so.
There is also the Hurontario LRT in Mississauga, which is a major project but isn't GO or TTC. I think it is supposed to be done in 2023.
