List Of GO Transit Bus Routes
This is a list of bus routes served by GO Transit, the sole inter-regional public transit system in Southern Ontario, Canada. These buses serve the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA), and the Greater Golden Horseshoe. The GO Transit bus fleet consists of single-level coach buses and double-decker buses. All of the buses are equipped with bike racks.
Each train route has a corresponding GO Bus service for the times (and directions) when (and where) the trains are not operating. These accept the same tickets as the trains and in many cases serve the same stations. For example, buses operate from Toronto to Milton, and from Aldershot station in West Burlington to Hamilton, at all times except the weekday evening peak when trains are available. Some train routes are similarly extended by buses at all times, as noted in the list of routes, with through buses when the trains do not run. For example buses to Guelph operate from Georgetown during peak times, and from Toronto at off-peak times. Buses serving downtown Toronto operate to a terminal adjacent to Union Station.
Other GO Buses are independent of rail services. Some parts of the route network use expressways (such as the frequent Toronto–Hamilton express bus via the Queen Elizabeth Way) while others are more local in character. Toronto Pearson International Airport is served by two routes: one from Brampton to Yorkdale and York Mills subway stations, and one to Richmond Hill Centre Terminal.
GO bus fares depend on the origin and destination of the trip. Some local municipal bus services offer fare integration, which offers a lower fare in conjunction with a trip on a GO bus. GO buses also offer use of the Presto card.
The busiest route is 94 Oshawa/Yorkdale Highway 2 (Includes 95 Express Bus).

“Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
Went down the list of the dead.
Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
The crews of the gig and yawl,
The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”
—Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)
“There’s that popular misconception of man as something between a brute and an angel. Actually man is in transit between brute and God.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“There was an old man from Darjeeling
Who got on a bus bound for Ealing.
It said at the door,
“Please don’t spit on the floor,”
So he carefully spat on the ceiling.”
—Anonymous.
“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
