We would like to share some upcoming planned service adjustments and construction updates that will impact your community
From late evening on Friday Nov. 29 and throughout the weekend, there will be no GO Train service between Union Station and Oakville GO due to construction along Lakeshore West. GO Trains will run between Niagara Falls and Oakville GO with minor schedule adjustments.
There will be no GO Transit service at Exhibition, Mimico, Long Branch and Port Credit GO stations.
Long Branch GO will be closed throughout the weekend due to construction. During this time, the temporary pathway from Edgeware Drive will remain open, however, access to the north platform from the temporary pathway will be closed. There will be no access to the station or the parking lot from 11:59 p.m. on Nov. 29 to Dec. 2 5:00 a.m. Reserved parking spot owners who are affected will be notified.
Please check your schedules before you travel.
Effective December 23, 2024 MiWay will make adjustments to two routes and service frequency changes in order to:
Changes to Route 5 Dixie and Launch of Route 31 Ogden
In response to Dixie Road construction, a permanent route is being introduced to provide consistent, reliable service for riders along Dixie Road and in Lakeview. Route 5 Dixie southbound will no longer service Ogden Road. Instead, the new Route 31 Ogden, operating seven days a week, will replace the temporary Ogden Shuttle, offering direct access from Dixie Outlet Mall to Long Branch GO and along Ogden Road. This change will enable riders to plan their trips online with greater accuracy and reliability.
Seasonal Adjustments for Holiday Demand
From December 23 to January 5 seasonal service frequency changes will be in place to align with holiday travel demand.This includes a reduced schedule during weekdays and special holiday service on certain routes. Key changes include:
High School Routes: Due to high school holiday closures, all 300-series routes will pause service from December 23, 2024, to January 3, 2025. Regular service resumes on Monday, January 6, 2025.
Ride Free New Year’s Eve: To encourage safe holiday celebrations, MiWay will offer free rides beginning at 7 p.m. on December 31. Several key routes will operate until 4 a.m. on January 1 to support riders getting home safely.
Metrolinx conducts comprehensive reviews and adjustments to GO Transit schedules throughout the year. This is done to ensure that services align with customer needs and resources are allocated to where they are most needed.
Beginning Saturday, December 7, GO bus service will reduce on some routes serving post-secondary institutions due to lower demand as classes end and holidays begin. We’ll still have service to get students to and from exams.
Beginning Saturday, December 21 and through January 3, GO bus service on some routes will reduce due to anticipated lower ridership during the holiday season.
Here are a few important reminders to make it easier to travel on GO.
Riders can check schedules to plan trips.
