In July 2016, City Council confirmed its support for the locations of six new SmartTrack station and two new GO stations. As the City of Toronto and Metrolinx continue to collaborate on the planning process for the development of SmartTrack and its integration with GO RER, they are hosting online town halls to consult on the new stations in accordance with the Transit Project Assessment Process.

As we reported in October 2017, during the transit project environmental assessment process, the city and Metrolinx continue to examine the potential effects of each of these new stations, gathering input from the public and stakeholders at several stages. These measures are being taken to refine the design and planning of the project, to reduce the impact of the stations on the nearby neighbourhoods, on natural features and on the transportation system

At the online town halls, information will be provided on the work underway for the new SmartTrack/GO stations, including environmental studies. Also, as Mayor John Tory has stressed the importance of public feedback, there will be an opportunity for you to ask questions and provide comments about the project
