Your Commute to GO
Getting to GO Stations & Stops
We know there’s more to your daily commute than just riding with GO Transit. We’re here to help make your journey to and from GO stations and stops as smooth and easy as possible.
Do you take transit to your GO station or stop? We’re striving to make connections easier by teaming up with local GTHA transit operators to offer increased accessibility options, discounted fares, and start-to-finish trip planning through Triplinx.
It’s a sweet ride for cyclists getting to GO! You can bring your bike on GO buses or trains, sign up for reserved bicycle parking and take advantage of bike lockers, storage and local bike-share programs.
If you live or work fairly close to a GO station or stop, walking is the best option to get you to where you’re going and to get you there on time.

Local Transit
Our local transit partners
Taking local transit is a great option, especially if you’re looking to avoid the stress of driving to and from GO stations. Did you know that GO Transit offers discounts to customers riding to or from GO stations with local transit partners? Many local transit systems also offer comprehensive assisted travelling and wheelchair-accessible services.
Learn more about our local transit partners and always use your PRESTO card to take advantage of savings. PRESTO automatically calculates your discount and applies it to your account when you connect to/from GO Transit and your local transit service.
Download the Triplinx App on the App Store or on Google Play to plan your trip anywhere within the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA).
Biking
Not only is riding your bike is a convenient way to get to GO stops and stations, you can also bring it onboard GO trains and buses! Reserved bicycle parking options, bike storage and bike parking are also available at select stations.
All GO buses can carry up to two bicycles. You can also bring your bike aboard GO trains, with the exception of morning and evening rush hours on trains that are typically busy during these times. You may bring your bike aboard a GO train or bus during peak hours if you are travelling in the opposite direction of a rush. Foldable bikes (that are folded up) are allowed on all GO trains and buses.
We welcome e-bikes on our GO Transit system, under certain rules and regulations.
Walking
If you live or work fairly close to a GO transit station, walking to your GO train or bus is always the best way to get you there on time. Shake up your routine by walking 1 or 2 days a week, unwind from your day, catch up on your favourite podcast and get a few steps in too!
