GO Transit buses roll into Region this fall
By Jeff Outhit
WATERLOO REGION — GO Transit buses are coming to the region this fall to serve Highway 401 commuters.
The buses will ferry local passengers to GO commuter trains in Milton and to a transit hub at Mississauga City Centre. The buses will not go directly to downtown Toronto.
They will depart from park-and-ride sites that are not yet selected but are anticipated to be in Kitchener and in Cambridge.
A GO spokesman said up to a dozen buses will operate daily along Highway 401, carrying 800 to 1,200 passengers a day within two years.
The federal and provincial governments are spending $2.5 million to build four park-and-ride sites in and near this region.
“We support public transit, and we encourage more people to use the GO Transit system,” said Peter Braid, the federal government MP for Kitchener-Waterloo.
Municipal politicians said they are happy to get GO buses and are still keen to get GO trains.
