Kitchener Construction

More trips, more connections, more of what you need.

Metrolinx is working to deliver more rail service to communities along the Kitchener line as quickly as we can. Kitchener line GO Expansion will transform the Kitchener line into a two-way, all-day rapid transit line is a massive, multi-year undertaking. The project is made up of many different pieces of work that once complete, will fit together seamlessly to deliver increased service and connections from Union Station to Kitchener GO, even on weekends..

To deliver increased service on the Kitchener line, improvements are being made along the line and to some existing stations – and the work is well underway.

Additional GO service will be introduced incrementally as key segments of work are completed.

To keep these plans on track, we sometimes work overnight and on weekends, building and updating rail infrastructure, renovating GO stations, building new train platforms and more. Learn more about GO Expansion.

We aim to provide you with plenty of notice when we need to adjust service for construction activity. Please plan your trip in advance.

Work may be adjusted, rescheduled, or extended due to weather conditions or unforeseen circumstances.
