Description:

Union Station is Canada's busiest and most important passenger transportation hub and a designated National Historic Site. The station's revitalization will result in many benefits, including an expanded GO Concourse, an increase in the number of exits and entrances, alleviated commuter congestion, and restoration and preservation of the station's heritage elements, as well as a full mechanical replacement. The Revitalization is a multi-phased $640-million City initiative, supported by investments of $164 million by the Government of Canada and $172 million by the Government of Ontario.
