Stouffville GO train line service to be suspended all weekend for track work
A head's up for GO train riders: there'll be no service on the Stouffville line this upcoming weekend while Metrolinx completes "critical track work." The closure begins Friday evening and runs through to the end of service hours on Sunday, Metrolinx said in a news release. Buses will partly replace trains, though they'll only stop at Old Elm, Stouffville, Mount Joy, Markham, Centennial and Unionville stations before running express to Union. That means there'll be no service to Milliken, Agincourt and Kennedy stations through the weekend. Metrolinx says customers using those stations should ride the TTC instead. You can find more details about the bus routes and alternative transit options here. According to Metrolinx, the track work is part of an effort to bring "faster, more frequent service" across the GO network.
