Lakeshore West Line GO Expansion
More trips, more trains, more of what you need
Today, the Lakeshore West line delivers two-way, all-day service seven days a week, from Union Station to Aldershot GO Station, and hourly service to West Harbour GO Station. It delivers rush-hour service from Hamilton to Toronto in the morning and back again in the afternoon. We know this line can do even more. We know it can be faster, with more trips all day long.
Whether you are traveling to work or visiting friends and family – we’re committed to getting you there better, faster, easier. The Lakeshore West GO Expansion will expand your possibilities. With 15-minute service or better throughout the day between Toronto and Burlington, alongside new hourly service to and from Hamilton seven days a week, you’ll have more ways to get where you need to go.

Benefits
Convenience
No matter the time of day you want to get moving, you’re going to have transit options. Convenient service when you need it will help you live life to its fullest potential, no matter where it takes you. An upgraded Lakeshore West GO Expansion line will help you do what matters most. Enter a seamless transit journey that will take you from home to every corner of the Greater Golden Horseshoe.
Service on the Lakeshore West line will increase, offering two-way-all day service between Union and Hamilton and fifteen-minute service or better between Burlington and Union.
Relief
Weekly trips on our GO network are increasing from about 3,500 weekly trips in 2019 to nearly 10,000, meaning even more residents can enjoy the convenience and seamless journey of our transit system. We’re making it easier for you to choose transit first.
