”
Ontario is providing the Region of Waterloo with $300 million to build rapid transit.
The project would be the largest single investment in transit infrastructure in the history of Waterloo region and includes light rail transit in both Waterloo and Kitchener, and bus rapid transit in Cambridge.
These transit improvements will:
- better connect the cities of Kitchener, Waterloo and Cambridge
- link to Grand River Transit and park and ride facilities
- connect to future GO Transit services. “
