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).

“A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“My esoteric doctrine, is that if you entertain any doubt, it is safest to take the unpopular side in the first instance. Transit from the unpopular, is easy ... but from the popular to the unpopular is so steep and rugged that it is impossible to maintain it.”
—William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)
“If Rosa Parks had taken a poll before she sat down in that bus in Montgomery, she’d still be standing.”
—Mary Frances Berry (b. 1938)
“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)
