Service Concept Clause Samples

Service Concept. The SmartTrack service concept along existing GO Transit corridors is intended to operate at the planned GO RER-level service for those corridors. To the extent that SmartTrack stations result in increased demand for more SmartTrack service, the City is responsible for those additional costs. Metrolinx will continue to examine the potential for through service at Union Station as part of its service planning; however, determinations about service configuration will be based on operational considerations for the GO network. To the extent that the City requires through service at Union Station between the Stouffville and Kitchener GO corridors that does not align with the Province’s GO RER service plan, the Province will inform the City of any resulting capital infrastructure or operating costs required, which the City will consider as part of a future decision point in the Stage Gate process as outlined in Section 1.1.
