On the weekend of March 28 and 29, we will be performing upgrades on Lakeshore East, including track maintenance. GO trains will run every hour between Durham College Oshawa GO and Union Station.

GO trains run on an hourly schedule between Durham College Oshawa GO and Union Station.

Stouffville line trains connect to Lakeshore East train service at Scarborough GO. Due to the adjusted train schedules, station buildings, platforms, stairwells, and walkways may be busier than usual. Please spread out along platforms and use all available doors when boarding.

What type of work is happening:

We are adjusting Lakeshore East service to complete important construction work and necessary maintenance to support faster, more frequent service as part of the GO Expansion program. While we know that these shutdowns can be inconvenient to our customers and communities, upgrading GO Transit today will bring you way more service in the future, so you can GO faster and GO farther .

 Learn more about our GO Expansion program and the Ontario Line. 

Whether you are traveling to work or visiting friends and family – we’re committed to getting you there better, faster, and easier.

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.
