There’s some great news for riders on the Lakeshore West Line, after Metrolinx announced the largest GO Train service increase in over a decade.
Customers getting on between Oakville GO and Union Station are set to enjoy improvements along the line.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Beginning April 28, customers can enjoy increased service on weekend, with trains coming every 15 minutes in the afternoons and evenings between Oakville GO and Union Station.
- An improvement compared to the previous 30 minutes service
Be sure to check the latest schedules on the GO Transit website – as departure times along the Lakeshore West Line may have changed.
These changes are all part of our ongoing work to bring more options and better flexibility for customers traveling across the region.
