WSP Part of Delivery Team for ONxpress Transportation Partners on the GO Expansion – On-Corridor Works Project

Deal represents the largest regional transit system project in Canadian history.

WSP in Canada is proud to announce that it is part of the delivery team for the ONxpress Transportation Partners (ONxpress) consortium that has reached commercial close on the GO Expansion – On-Corridor Works (OnCorr) project.

 

This project will transform GO Rail from a peak period commuter service to an all-day, frequent metro-style service, operating in both directions and provide significant improvements to rail service in the Greater Toronto-Hamilton Area. This represents another opportunity for us to showcase our ability to provide sustainable, Future Ready® solutions for our clients.
