Erindale GO Station is a GO Transit railway station on the Milton line in the Greater Toronto Area, Ontario, Canada. It is located at 1320 Rathburn Road West, just east of the Credit River in the Creditview neighbourhood of Mississauga, west of the Square One area. Like many other GO stations, Erindale offers parking facilities, and has a station building which houses ticket sales and includes a waiting room. Erindale acted as a terminus for the midday trains that GO Transit once operated on the Milton Line during the early to mid-1990s, but these trains no longer run.Although ridership on the Milton line has grown beyond GO's expectations, it is not possible to run more trains, because the tracks are already busy with Canadian Pacific Railway freight traffic. In order to increase capacity, GO has extended the platforms to accommodate trains with twelve carriages rather than the previous ten. Erindale was most recently upgraded and is now fully wheel chair accessible. A construction project underwent a new multi-level covered parking structure with 1700 new spaces, new bus loop, dedicated pedestrian pathways, and covered pedestrian bridge to the station tracks. The project was completed in the spring of 2014.

Terrence Donnelly Health Sciences Complex

The Terrence Donnelly Health Sciences Complex (TDHSC) is an academic building of the University of Toronto on its Mississauga campus in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. The building is home to the Mississauga Academy of Medicine (MAM), one of the four academies in the Temerty Faculty of Medicine's MD program. It was built in 2011 as part of an effort to expand Ontario health care education, and is the only medical school location in Mississauga. The Faculty of Medicine is affiliated with Trillium Health Partners' teaching hospitals in Mississauga for students in the Mississauga Academy of Medicine. Apart from MAM, the Health Sciences Complex houses the UTM Biomedical Communications program and the Department of Anthropology. It was designed by Kongats Architects Toronto, with funding provided by Carlo Fidani, Terrence Donnelly, and the Provincial Government. Carlo Fidani donated $10 million for building costs, scholarships, and a chair in family and community medicine. Terrence Donnelly donated $12 million to building costs and scholarships. Capital funding for the project of $30.3 million was provided by the Provincial Government. The construction for the 5,960 square meter (64,153 square feet), four-storey building began the summer of 2009. The building officially opened on November 1, 2011. The building was designed like a "stacked box," built on a slope between the Communication, Culture and Technology and William G. Davis buildings, with an elevated walkway built connecting to the latter. Inside the building are modern classrooms, seminar rooms, computer facilities, learning spaces and laboratories, a student lounge, and outdoor terrace.
