I am a student at Conestoga College in Kitchener, and I happen to live in Guelph. Currently there is no REASONABLE transportation options between Guelph and Kitchener for students, or anyone else for that matter. The Greyhound arrives in Kitchener at 9:30 at the earliest. The VIA train arrives at 12:30. I have tried desperately (and in vain) to arrange carpooling for commuters, but people just don’t seem comfortable with the idea of carpooling. What does a girl have to do to get SOMEONE, ANYONE to create a shuttle or express service between these two cities???? There is a demand for it, I GUARANTEE it would be used by thousands….is this GO expansion the answer? If so, what’s the hold up???

I have this strange feeling there is more gong on with this GO train business then what the governments are telling us…….

You are correct. In fact, GO and VIA are partnering on the improvements. This alone is adding to the complexities as well as negotiating with the two Freight railways involved (CN/GEXR). To say this is one of the more complex GO projects currently under negotiating is an understatement. Stay tuned, some day we might have a very positive announcement on GOKW.ORG if both Governments can come to an agreement.
