Metrolinx continues its project to upgrade Bradford GO Station, as part of the GO Expansion Program.
Monday, March 28, GO Transit continues to temporarily close the northeast parking lot, as crews complete water connections. Park in the other two lots at the station. GO expects to reopen the northeast lot “towards the end of the week”, meaning water-connection construction at Bradford GO Station continues as late as until April 1.
Since Monday, January 17, GO has sectioned off about 30 parking spaces in the south section of the parking lot near Bridge Street to store equipment. This will not change how you access the station.
During the station upgrade project, GO is:
- installing a signal at the Dissette Street entrance to improve traffic flow.
- building new sidewalks into the station from Dissette Street and Bridge Street.
- improving station lighting and closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras;
- improving the parking lot and increasing the number of parking spaces;
- improving the stormwater-management system; and
- upgrading the bus loop with three new bays and installing a new heated shelter.
Metrolinx and GO plan to accommodate more passengers and increase service along the Barrie line, as part of their GO Expansion Program (formerly “regional express rail”).
