Transportation in Whitchurch-Stouffville
Whitchurch-Stouffville benefits tremendously from the close proximity it has to the heart of the Greater Toronto Area, and from the fact that its development has been recent and rapid. This means that new neighbourhoods are being planned around established major transit points like highways and the GO Station, which has its own developments planned to tremendously increase its viability for those travelling to the city. About one third of Whitchurch-Stouffville’s residents take between 45 minutes to over an hour to commute to work, and nearly half take between 15-44 minutes of driving. The majority of them drive, but the development of Whitchurch-Stouffville’s urban core as well as a planned GO train expansion will increase the number of people commuting via public transit. Expanding on the development of its GO line, there already is a GO station in Whitchurch-Stouffville, but it has a relatively low rate of trains running through its line. As part of a plan to work on the various stations on the line it belongs to, the Stouffville line is set to have 400% more service, increasing the number of weekly train trips from 1,500 to roughly 6,000. This train line already offers transport to Toronto, East York, Scarborough, Markham and then Stouffville, with an extensive GO bus service to give transport to passengers when trains aren’t available. In short, this expansion will increase the number of stations on this line, and dramatically increase the number of visits that trains will make on the current and new stations. In addition to granting quick and frequent access to the city to those living near the station, it will also reduce congestion on the highways that driving commuters take to get to work.
