West Toronto residents tormented by pounding noise and house-rattling vibration from railway construction through their area have won another round in an ongoing battle against GO Transit. The commuter railway doesn't appear ready to quit, however.

The Canadian Transportation Agency examined residents' concerns about noise and vibration levels and GO Transit's arguments for continuing unabated. After weighing all the evidence, the agency concluded last December that the disruption being caused by extended piledriving was unreasonable and required mitigation. The ruling was cheered by residents in the affected area at Keele and Dundas, known as the Junction.
