Rapid population growth, increasing congestion, and years of under investment in transit in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) led the Government of Ontario to create a regional transportation agency, Metrolinx, in 2006. In recent years, Metrolinx expanded significantly, when the following operating divisions joined: 1. GO Transit, in 2009 - the Province's regional commuter transit (rail and bus) provider 2. Airport Rail Link (ARL), in 2010 - responsible for building rail service from Toronto's Union Station to Pearson International Airport 3. PRESTO, in 2011 - an electronic fare card system being implemented across the region Metrolinx developed the region's first ever Regional Transportation Plan, The Big Move, in 2008, which builds on, complements, and conforms to the Province's award-winning Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2006. The Growth Plan aims to curb sprawl and protect green space, revitalize downtowns, create complete communities, provide for a range of housing options, reduce traffic congestion by offering a range of transportation choices, and integrate infrastructure investments with land use planning.
