Hamilton LRT

14 kilometres of modern light rail transit running between McMaster University and Eastgate Square.

Project overview

The Hamilton LRT project will bring 14 kilometres of fast, frequent light rail transit through Hamilton’s downtown core connecting you from Eastgate to McMaster and everywhere in between. Modern light rail service will connect key areas, destinations, and institutions along Main Street, King Street and Queenston Road. It will move approximately 50,000 riders daily and will support 16,400 new daily trips on transit. It will also feature direct connections to GO Transit and HSR bus service.

The future King Street East underpass will allow the light rail vehicles (LRVs) to travel under the existing CPKC rail line. Separating the two lines will ensure reliable, continuous movement along the LRT route and a smooth convenient journey for customers.
