      Historique

      The Research and Transportation Systems Branch was established 1 April 1970 replacing the Research Branch. The new name of the branch reflected a broadening of its mandate to include research and development activities into transit systems, as well as highways. The branch consisted of two offices: the Transit Operations Office, which operated GO Transit; and the Transit Planning Office.

      The branch was succeeded by the Engineering Research and Development Branch of the Ontario Department of Transportation and Communications.
