Lakeshore West Line GO Expansion

Long Branch GO Station

An upgraded and accessible station is on the way

Metrolinx’s GO Expansion program is delivering more GO service across the network, including trains every 15 minutes or better on the Lakeshore West line.

To help support this work, Metrolinx is upgrading the rail network and stations to enable more frequent and fully accessible service. This includes accessibility and amenity upgrades to Toronto’s Long Branch GO Station, to serve you better and get you where you need to go.
