Connecting To GO

On weekdays, GO station parking lots can fill up. If your station’s lot is crowded, you may want to consider other ways of getting there, such as walking, cycling, carpooling, or taking local transit. These are also great ways to introduce more physical activity into your daily lifestyle, and to help the environment.

Discounts are available on many local transit systems for regular GO customers.
