The City of Toronto is currently undertaking a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Study for a new underground northwest PATH pedestrian connection that will connect Union Station to the existing PATH system in the Wellington Street area.

The purpose of this new PATH connection is to relieve crowding and support future downtown growth and pedestrian activities generated by GO Transit's service expansion over the next 20 years. A new northwest PATH connection will also more effectively disperse congestion in the PATH system, which is currently oriented in the northeast area of Union Station.

The City of Toronto and GO Transit have retained the consulting firm ARUP Canada to assist with the assessment.

This redistribution will occur at the same time as the development of a new GO west concourse that will mirror the existing GO east concourse. Visit GO Transit's Union Station Renewal Program website for more information on GO Transit's program.

Visit the PATH website for the history and facts on the PATH network.
