The federal government is investing $2.55 million for improvements at VIA Rail stations in London and Sarnia.
The cash was announced Monday on behalf of the Honourable Marc Garneau, Minister of Transport.
Projects at London's station include upgrades to the station’s pedestrian tunnel and signage, as well as infrastructure improvements related to the station’s washroom facilities, heating system and tower cladding.
Sarnia's VIA station will see roof repairs, upgraded washrooms, repairs to masonry and doors, and relocating wayside power panels.
“This investment allows VIA Rail's rail corridor infrastructure to remain safe and secure while at the same time improving the passenger experience by making it more accessible and efficient for Canadians,” Minister of Transport Marc Garneau said in a statement.
