  • C.23 - Cw Info
    APRIL 14, 2015 Page 1 of 93 11. C.23 - CW INFO FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 25, 2015 Pettapiece presents Network Southwest plan to transport minister (Queen’s Park) – When it comes to improved local transportation options, Perth-Wellington MPP Randy Pettapiece wants to get the province on board. Today in the legislature, Pettapiece presented Steven Del Duca, Ontario’s transportation minister, with a copy of the Network Southwest plan unveiled March 18 in St. Marys. “I explained to the minister how important this is to many in our community,” said Pettapiece. “He was very receptive,” he added. The MPP also wrote to the minister on behalf of the 86 people who signed postcards to support the Network Southwest plan. He presented all the postcards directly to the minister along with a full copy of the plan. The postcards state: “High quality intercity transportation, based on rail and bus, is a necessity of any modern nation. Southwestern Ontario has a particular need, due to high road congestion, population density and diverse economic activity.” They also call for a definitive study on the concept plan as outlined by Network Southwest. Pettapiece has written and spoken many times about the importance of improved transportation options – and, in particular, the need to extend GO transit service through Perth-Wellington. Last year the MPP took the extra step of submitting an Order Paper question on the Premier’s stated intention of extending GO transit service to our riding. Pettapiece was not pleased by the response, which made no mention of rural transportation challenges, focusing instead on the government’s promises for the Greater Toronto-Hamilton area.

  • Kitchener-Guelph Corridor Expansion
    KITCHENER CORRIDOR EXPANSION GUELPH SUBDIVISION TRANSIT PROJECT ASSESSMENT PROCESS Public Information Centre (PIC) #1 November 2019 Kitchener Corridor Expansion Metrolinx is transforming the existing GO rail system to deliver a whole new rapid transit experience to your community. With more frequent train service and a seamless, convenient, integrated transit network, you’ll have more options to get you where you need to go. Two-way, all-day service on the Kitchener corridor requires a host of new infrastructure between Kitchener GO and Bramalea GO. Significant steps are underway to make the changes needed. Maintenance and repair work is happening today to improve the comfort and speed of the commute. Since extending services from Georgetown to Kitchener in 2011, service on the Kitchener corridor has more than doubled to six trains running east in the morning and west in the afternoon. In September 2019 the first midday and late night options were added to the corridor. Kitchener Corridor Expansion - Early Works In November 2018, Metrolinx took over ownership of the Guelph Subdivision, the section of the rail corridor that extends from Georgetown through to Kitchener. We are already making significant improvements that will result in a faster, more reliable trip. Crews are installing new switches, and replacing rail, ties and ballast, to make the commute faster and more comfortable. These infrastructure improvements were previously approved as part of the Georgetown to Kitchener Rail Expansion Environmental Study Report – 2009, which

At the time, few could have anticipated the devastating consequences, here at home and across the globe. Our loved ones, our economy, our education system, our main streets and our communities have all been impacted by the global pandemic. But from the first moments of this crisis, Premier Ford made clear that our government would protect the people of this province. As the COVID‐19 pandemic has continued to unfold during the preparation of this Budget, people have been very clear that they expect us to be focused on two vital priorities: 1. First and foremost, they expect us to protect people’s health. 2. And second, they expect us to protect our economy.
