Health official to study fumes along airport link









Toronto's medical officer of health will study the potential dangers from increased diesel fumes along the route of the proposed rail link to Pearson Airport after a vote at a board of health meeting yesterday.

Activists fighting the project say express diesel trains from Union Station to Pearson, along with a planned massive increase in GO Transit service, could create a cloud of new pollution for residents along the Georgetown rail corridor in west Toronto.
