Metrolinx is prioritizing reliability and improving your options by offering trains every 10 minutes during rush hour, reducing wait times and naturally spreading demand to ease crowding and improve comfort.

Frequent all-stop service delivers key benefits during construction, especially with major works underway and the third track temporarily out of service.

All-stop service also avoids the bottlenecks and cascading delays that express trains would create without passing tracks, while giving you more flexibility to adjust your travel during peak periods.

Lakeshore East GO Expansion builds on what we have today, paving the way for quieter, faster, and more efficient GO train service.

To keep these plans on track, we sometimes work overnight and on weekends, building and updating rail infrastructure, renovating GO stations, building new train platforms and more. Learn more about GO Expansion.

We aim to provide you with plenty of notice when we need to adjust service for construction activity. Please plan your trip in advance.

How to pay for your trip

If you are travelling with a PRESTO, credit or Interac debit card:

To ensure you are charged the correct fare, please tap your PRESTO, credit or Interac debit card at every point of your journey:

• Before boarding a train, tap on at the station.
• When exiting the train, tap off at your destination station, unless your card already has a default trip set for that journey.
• If you are transferring to a bus, tap on when you board and tap off when you exit.

This helps ensure your fare is calculated accurately throughout your trip.

If you’re travelling with an e- ticket:

• Ensure you have activated your ticket before boarding your train or bus.
• Data is required for purchasing and activating your e-ticket.
• Please note: GO e-tickets are not eligible for Ontario’s One Fare.

If you are travelling with a paper ticket:

• Keep your ticket available for inspection on trains and when boarding buses.
• Some local transit agencies will accept GO Transit tickets as a transfer, within a two-hour travel window. Learn more about these local transit partners and the One Fare program.

Ontario’s One Fare applies when you pay your fare with a physical PRESTO card, PRESTO in Mobile Wallet, or with a contactless credit or debit card. It does not apply for cash fare or ticket products. You must use the same card throughout your entire trip.
