Barrie GO train weekend service interruptions continue

Metrolinx has just issued a reminder to passengers who use the Barrie GO Train service. As a continuation of last weekend’s track work, on Saturday, May 3, Barrie Line service will be temporarily modified until end of service on Sunday, May 4 to accommodate critical work that will bring faster, more frequent service across the network.
