In looking back at my announcement, I said then that in our attempt to develop maximum utilization of all mod- es. the government had accept- ed the advice of the CNRA “This advice was that the only rail capacity available without resorting to costly and major modifications, existed only on the line that we had selected. and at that. it was severely restricted. We have been informed recently that detailed studies subsequently carried out by the railway would make the use of this line not only very expensive. but a1- so virtually ineffective for com- muter purposes. SERVICE T00 SLOW “In order to accommodate even the minimum service of two trains during the morning and evening peak periods. ad- ditional track and switching equipment would be required.

Three chartered CNR trains were to operate be- tween Richmond Hill and Tor- onto Union Station during the morning and evening rush hours". said Mr. Robarts. But things didn't go as ex- pected for the development of service north of Toronto, through York County. “At the time of my announce- ment in November. it was tena- tively scheduled to have the commuter extension projects in operation about the middle of the year. I am now advised that testing of equipment will begin in mid-August. Public operation is scheduled to com- mence on September 8. follow- ing the Labor Day weekend.” MORE GO LINES Mr. Robarts then outlined plans for GO system extensions for Oakville. Hamilton. Whitby. Oshawa. Ajax, Pickering and Burlington. These plans fol- lowed closely along the lines an- nounced in November. he said. Mr. Robarts said considerable work has been carried out in the short time since his origin- al announcement of the gov- ernment's acceptance of propos- als to extend the GO system. “The many tasks involved in translating these basic planning concepts into actual services have involved negotiations with local governments, the carriers. the design of equipment and terminals. ordering equipment. establishing integrated schedul- r- -vw. _ "The report also indicates that certain conditions have made it necessaiy to alter some of the} original proposal concepts.

Thse ve- hicles will have a number of ‘special features. including spa- ;cious‘ seating'for 45 passengers in buses normally including seats for 53 people. These bus- es will also have air-condition- ing and heating systems. bright interior decor with special light- ing systems. large picture win- dows and air spring suspension .lhat will give a limousine qual- ity ride. “Negotiations are now being carried out for the purchase of the mini-bus equipment. It is expected that an order will he placed shortly for early summer delivery," said the premier. “As a step toward the inte- gration of public transportation systems. Gray Coach and GO Transit have reached agreement on a common ticketing system within the areas of common op- eration. “In most cases. under this agreement. the tickets of both carriers will be honored by each other. The transportation plan- ning group in the Department of Highways is also investigat- ing the long-term possibilities of co-ordinating fares of allt modes of operation in the Tor- onto region. As part of this in- vestigation. G0 Transit and the Toronto Transit Commission have entered into a joint study: of new developments in automa-‘ tic fare collection equipment to‘ determine the feasibility of in- troducing a unified ticketing system. 5 Train Profit Returned The man who made $305 pro~ fit on an experimental commut- er train run between Toronto and Barrie then gave the mon- ey to the province said last week he wants it back. John Medcof. a Mount Albert lawyer. earned the money with a one-day return commuter train he promoted last October 16. He said he wants the mon- ey back because the Ontario Government has announced it won't provide G0 Transit serv- ice north to Barrie. "These vehicles will be equip- ped with a new air pollution de- vice which will considerably re- duce hydrocarbon. carbon mon- oxide, and oxide of nitrogen emissions. In addition, smoke and exhaust odor become al- most negligible and noise is re- duced 30 percent. The inclu- sion of this device will mean that GO transit will be the first fleet in North America carrying this pollution control equip- ment. “I should also like to report that these bus services will be operated on behalf of the gov- ernment by Gray Coach Lines. a wholly owned subsidiary of the Toronto Transit Commis- sion. A special task force made up of representatives of Gray Coach. the TTC, GO Tran- "Even if this improvement was made. the running time beâ€" tween Richmond Hill and Union Station, including the station stops. would require 53 minutes. Such a schedule would offer no advantage over existing public transportation, or travel by automobile. sit “It was estimated that on the basis of the projected volumes of riders that would be attract- ed to this service. a rail service would require a subsidy of $2 million per year. On a per pas- senger basis. this would amount to between three and four times the subsidy being paid on the lakeshore rail commuter serv- ice. “Consequently, it has now been decided to introduce a comprehensive commuter oper- ation using buses. This will comprise G0 Transit rush~hour and offâ€"peak express services which will be integrated with local and trunk line services operating within the corridor between Barrie and Toronto As part of this new approach. the government will establish new ‘bus terminals in Newmar- ket. Aurora and Richmond Hill to provide parking and passen- ger waiting facilities. total trains through Richmond Hill in a 24-hour period are tw0 passenger and 12 freight trains. he says. Mr. Deacon represents‘ Southern York County in the Legislature. Mr.’ Deacon also says the ONE and GO Transit were of- fered 10 used Budd cars which1 would have been adequate for the trial service at a cost of ap-‘ proximately 525.000 each, verr sus the $300,000 for each of the' GO Transit‘s self-propelled cars. He also says a comparable CN 20-mi1e run between St. Hil- Mr. Robarts added that cur- rent plans call for work on ter- minal installations along all the GO system’s three new routes to commence at the beginning of the summer. traffic which would conflict with the proposed rush-hour service. “Becalise the government has now been informed that there is no likelihood that ’these oper- ating conditions on the northern line can be improved. it has been necessary to consider al- ternative proposals to fulfill the service commitment for this area. "Because of the necessary‘ change of plans. details of this; new approach will have to await the completion of negotiations with local authorities and the carriers which will be involved. "In addition to providing the mini-bus service originally plan- ned for Newmarket and Aurora. investigations are now being carried out to determine the feasibility of also introducing such a service at Richmond Hill.

He said he wants the mon- ey back because the Ontario Government has announced it won't provide G0 Transit serv- ice north to Barrie. “Why should Montreal have the benefit of 124 commuter trains daily on three rail lines provided by the CNR at no cost to the local taxpayer, while the CNR provides the Toronto area with only four such trains? “Premier Roberts should de- mand that Ottawa assume traf’ fic control of these empty rail- way rights-of-way and give prior use of them to any quali- fied public carrier. Then the people of this province would not be forced to put up with a monopoly that is denying them the best integrated and mini- mum cost type of public trans- portation," says the York Cen- tre MLA. The mini-buses mentioned by Premier Robarts are intended to help existing local bus lines in gathering passengers and bringing them to the G0 ter- minals. This experiment in- volves 11-passenger mini-buses to be purchased from Ford Motor Company. They will be dispatched in time to pick up the customer at. or near. his home. and take him to one of the hourly G0 trains. in areas where trains operate. or to the larger buses. ant. is developing an operation agreement the province and the pany. “There is no doubt in my mind that the ON is hoping to keep its valuable rights-of-way free of annoying passenger trains. It is clearly more inter- ested in moving freight than it is in moving people. The gov- ernment announcement is noth- ing more than a poor, makeshift arrangement. Fancy buses sit- ting in traffic are no answer to moving commuters. He also says a comparable CN 20-mi1e run between St. Hi1- laire and Central Station in Montreal, including six stops, requires only 38 minutes. “Transit travel time from portal to portal must be faster. or at least as fast. as the private auto. “There must be convenient and well integrated connections between public transit vehicles. “Service must be well main‘ tained. courteous and reliable." CITES MONTREAL Mr. Deacon says the existing lakeshore GO Transit service is excellent on the last necessary point, but could be greatly speeded up with imaginative scheduling. “Even at present volumes, double decker equip- ment is needed to alleviate rush-hour congestion.” he says. “If the province is really seri- i ous about attracting the motor I ing commuters to an integrated I public transit system," says Mtll Deacon. “it must recognize theil simple and elementary rules]- which every successful opera-ll tion rigidly adheres to, as fol-{l lows: 52 Numbers LIBERAL Stay-laters egggsggggbmets ror Ib,UUU Delegates bus Com"; Have you a spare room whichlconventions.
