This is a picture taken yesterday from Armstrong Avenue showing the work in progress on our historic trestle bridge over the Credit River. You can see the gigantic crane at work.
This is an extremely important project for Halton Hills but one that few people are aware of. It is hidden from view and is far from any residential areas. However, work is steadily progressing.
The project will allow for the doubling of the railroad tracks. This single bridge has been the major blockage in providing improved passenger rail service in the Toronto/Guelph/Kitchener corridor. Ample service can be provided as far as the Mount Pleasant Go Station but after that service is greatly restricted.
Once the bridge is completed then the dream of all day rail service to Toronto can become a possibility. However, the provision of the service itself is another story.
