An Environmental Assessment study cur- rently underway on the possible extension of GO train service from Georgetown to Kitchener includes a potential stop in Acton. Two possible locations for Acton stations are included in the study. One is on Town-owned land alongside the tracks adjacent to the olde Hide House, and the other being considered is on Guelph St. W., west of Acton, east of Dublin Line, not far from MacMillans Frozen Foods. The inclusion of a possible stop in Acton is welcome news to Halton Hills Mayor Rick Bonnette. Based on comments made by Greg Ashbee, manager of GOs rail expansion program in a story in The Independent & Free Press in July where he said a demand for a stop in Acton wasnt as high as it once was, Bonnette sees it as very positive that two potential stops in Acton are now being considered in the EA. Im encouraged by what I heard, said Bonnette, who along with Wellington-Halton Hills MPP Ted Arnott (who set up the meeting) recently met with GO officials at Queens Park. Theyre spending money, theyre doing an EA, they are looking at (station) sites (in Acton). Bonnette called it a very positive discus- sion, adding, there is some serious discussion about bringing the GO train service back to Acton. He said there seems to be a change in direc- tion from what Ashbee said in July.
