GO Train service will be back on track at 5 p.m. after Long Branch, Mimico and Exhibition GO Stations were closed for four days due to construction.
The stations will open on March 25 as Metrolinx upgraded the rail network.
The company said Metrolinx’s GO Expansion program is delivering more service across the network, including trains every 15-minutes or better on the Lakeshore West Rail Corridor.
“To support GO Expansion, we are upgrading the rail network and our GO stations to enable more frequent and fully accessible service,” Metrolinx said.
It said during the closure Long Branch’s Track 3 was realigned and the south-west platform widened. Access to the station from Edgeware Drive will resume and station parking lots will reopen.
Metrolinx said micro-piling took place at the station at the beginning of March, which entailed 12 micro-piles being drilled, with a steel bar placed inside the hole and filled with concrete for the installation of temporary rail bridges to maintain rail service during construction.
It said temporary rail bridges will be installed on April 15 and is slated to take two months. Most work will take place from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.
