GO PLATFORM CLOSURE
A portion of the GO platform has been closed to allow work on the new underpass to
proceed. The closure is expected to last until May 2018.
The closure will take place after the last train to minimize impact to service.
Editor's Notes
These relocations will take place in order to allow for construction and excavation of the future station.
