No GO trains between Oakville and Aldershot on Niagara line this weekend

Ontario’s transit agency says a temporary schedule change this weekend means there will be no direct train routes to Niagara Falls from Toronto.

Metrolinx says riders looking to take the service to Niagara will have to complete the trip by hopping on a GO bus between Oakville and Aldershot starting Friday through until Sunday night.

Officials say the change is in preparation for construction at the Burloak Drive grade separation.

Trains on the Lakeshore West line will only run between Toronto and Oakville as well as between Aldershot and Niagara Falls starting Friday at 9 p.m.

GO buses will replace train service between Oakville and Aldershot via routes 12, 15, 18 and 21.

Those looking to get to the Falls will need to hop on Route 12 at the Burlington GO station or go to Aldershot to grab a train to Niagara Falls to avoid replacement buses.

Regular service will resume Monday, June 12.
