Minister of Transportation Jeff Yurek has announced weekday Go train service to Niagara Falls.
That GO train will make stops in St. Catharines and West Harbour station in Hamilton.
Beginning on January 7, 2019, people travelling by GO Transit between Niagara Falls and Toronto's Union Station will benefit from a new morning trip with an evening return every weekday.
The morning train that currently starts from West Harbour station in Hamilton at 6:39 a.m. will now start in Niagara Falls at 5:19 a.m., stopping at St. Catharines before continuing on to Toronto.
In the evening, the existing train from Union Station at 5:15 p.m. to West Harbour will continue on to serve St. Catharines and Niagara Falls.
“Our government is keeping our promise to get people moving and make life better for everyone in Ontario by expanding GO train service to Niagara Falls,” said Yurek.
“We are working with our railway partner, CN, to use the existing rail infrastructure to expand GO Transit service for people in Niagara Falls and St. Catharines four years sooner than
promised.”
When using PRESTO, the train fare between Niagara Falls and Union Station is $19.80.
Without PRESTO, the train fare between Niagara Falls and Union Station is $22.30.
