BURLINGTON, ON
Starting on Saturday, September 27, until end of service on Sunday, September 28, Lakeshore West Line rail service will be temporarily modified to accommodate critical track work that will bring faster, more frequent service across the network.
During this time, there will be no GO Train service between Oakville and Exhibition GO.
GO Train service will continue to run between Niagara Falls and Oakville GO stations, as well as between Exhibition GO and Union Station, but replacement buses will serve Oakville and Clarkson GO and then run direct between Clarkson GO and Union Station.
There will be no GO Transit services at Port Credit, Long Branch or Mimico GO.
Starting later this evening on September 26, there will also be some late-night service adjustments, and we have arranged two extra westbound trains trips from Union Station to Exhibition GO.
If you’re travelling from the Mississauga area, on Saturday, September 27 only, we’re adding four Milton line trains:
- 2:27 p.m. and 4:27 p.m. trains departing Milton GO, making all stops to Union Station, arriving at 3:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.
- 7:04 p.m. and 7:34 p.m. trains departing Union Station, making all stops to Milton GO, arriving at 8:04 p.m. and 8:34 p.m.
- Customers can use Lisgar, Meadowvale, Streetsville, Erindale, Cooksville or Dixie GO stations to connect to Union Station.
More information about Lakeshore West Line service adjustments and alternate route options is available HERE.
Please check schedules before travelling as trip times could depart earlier or later than usual. GO bus connection times may be adjusted, and customers should expect longer than usual wait times.






Of course GO Train decides to shut down service on the same day:
Toronto Blue Jays host Tampa Bay in a chase for a division title,
Toronto Maple Leafs host “Forever Rival” Montreal Canadiens, and
Toronto FC hosts Miami (featuring the #1 soccer player on earth?) Messi.
Why not?
Oh – they said “GO busses will run instead”
Yes – a GO bus fits 50 people and uses the SAME QEW & Gardiner as ALL the other traffic does*** – except it has to exit and stop at every shopping mall along the way to pick up & drop off passengers, while GO trains would run direct on dedicated rails and carry 1,000 passengers.
***Traffic that is “higher than normal” because the GO Train is not running.
