Councillors also voted in support of an exemption exemption for the project from hearings under the Environmental Environmental Assessment Act, which would help the GO Train arrive by the 1991 deadline. At the council meeting on Monday, November 9, a presentation from Ian Williams, a consultant with M.M. Dillon Ltd., outlined the preferred route and sites for stations. stations. From the four possible extension routes from Whitby to Oshawa, Alternative Alternative 3 has been chosen based on analysis of advantages advantages and disadvantages disadvantages and the input received received by the public, elected officials and municipal technical staff. The proposed route will run from Whitby south of 401 along the Canadian National Railway Railway tracks then head north to the Canadian Pacific Railway line just east of Thorton Road in Oshawa. The route would then continue along the CPR tracks to a lay-over station west of Courtice Road in Newcastle. Newcastle. Under the present proposal there will be one station just south of the Oshawa Centre and a second one east of the Holiday Inn in Oshawa. According to Mr. Williams, Williams, the present extension extension from Pickering to Whitby would allow service service to begin by the end of 1988. It is hoped that the extension to Oshawa would see service by 1991. Under plans several years ago for a proposed Light Rail Transit (LRT) system, an environmental environmental assessment was already already passed. While ad : mitting that assessment, is no longer valid, Mr. Williams said that the present route has even fewer impacts than the LRT line. Without an exemption from hearings, Mr. Williams Williams said that the job of reaching Oshawa by 1991 would "be a very difficult difficult task." In voting favorably for the motion in support of the route and exemption from environmental assessment assessment hearings, there ivere a few questions about the proposed layover layover station which is to be built in Courtice. The station will only be used for storage and light maintenance, according according to Mr. Williams. Councillor Frank Stapleton raised concerns concerns about possible noise and diesel fuel emissions from the engines engines that would stay at the station overnight. It was explained that the engines would plug into an electrical current current in order to keep warm for start up in the mornings. "They will be completely completely quiet," said Frank Goh, from GO Transit. Also of concern was the amount of parking at the terminus station near the Holiday Inn in Oshawa.; Councillor Diane Hamre mentioned the real advantage of the station to Town of Newcastle Newcastle residents and wanted to know if provisions provisions for ample parking were in the plans. Mr. Williams explained that the site did have proper parking and was also expandable if needed. Support for the proposed proposed route has already come from Durham's regional regional council and Oshawa city council. A similar presentation was to be made at Whitby city council on Tuesday, November November 10. A second series of public public information sessions are also scheduled for later this month. Town of Newcastle residents residents will have a chance to look at the plans and ask any questions questions of the consultants on Wednesday, November November 18 from 3:00 - 9:00 prm. at the Lions Centre in Bowmanville.
