GO Train on the tracks

Kitchener Line GO Expansion

Weston GO Station

An improved Weston GO Station is on its way.

Weston GO Station, a community hub and key transit point in Toronto, is receiving much-needed improvements to make way for two-way, all-day service on the Kitchener GO Line, seven days a week, as part of the broader GO Expansion program.

The station serves many commuters, travellers, and airport workers on both the GO and the UP Express lines because of its direct connections to Pearson International Airport, and Union Station in downtown Toronto. The station’s parking lot also doubles as a space for community events, as well as parking for nearby churches.
