Stouffville Line GO Expansion

Finch-Kennedy GO Station

A New SmartTrack GO Station at Finch Avenue East and Kennedy Road.

As part of the SmartTrack Stations program, Finch-Kennedy GO Station will be located on Finch Ave. E. between Milliken Boulevard and Midland Ave on the Stouffville line.

The station will feature canopies and heated shelters to keep passengers warm and dry. Bike parking, an accessible drop-off area and seamless connections to frequent TTC bus service on Finch Ave will make it easy to get to the station.

A new rail bridge will support future two-way, all-day rail service on the Stouffville line, while keeping motorists, pedestrians and cyclists moving along Finch Ave.

The development phase for Finch-Kennedy GO Station is ongoing with the construction manager. Work for the project is already underway.

During the project’s development phase, the construction manager works closely with Metrolinx on potential solutions to design challenges – allowing for innovation, efficiency, and quality management throughout the design process.  

Near the end of the development phase, the construction manager will provide an estimated construction schedule and a target price for the proposed work – at which time, Metrolinx and the construction manager would finalize the construction contract.

Project overview

SmartTrack is coming to Toronto to bring you a better connected, more modern transit network to get you where you need to go within your city and beyond. The SmartTrack Stations program will leverage roughly 40 km of Metrolinx’s pre-existing GO rail corridors within the city, so that new rail stations are closer to where people live, work and travel.

Specific benefits for the surrounding community, as well as transit users, include:

Easy access to TTC bus connections through TTC lay-bys and platforms
A new road under rail grade separation with bike lanes and sidewalks
Single train connection to Union Station
Convenient connections to local and regional destinations, such as Agincourt, Milliken, Unionville and Markham.

This transformative infrastructure project will provide a greater choice of reliable and convenient route options to shorten commutes and increase quality of life for locals and visitors alike. The new stations are projected to bring 110,000 new daily riders to the rail network by 2031, providing easy access to more than 52 major regional destinations located within 800 metres of transit stations, including major shopping centres, community facilities and educational institutions.

The SmartTrack program is a joint initiative of the Province of Ontario, Infrastructure Ontario, the City of Toronto and Metrolinx. Please visit the City of Toronto webpage for more information on the program.
