Metrolinx, the operator of GO Transit, yesterday announced that on Saturday, September 20 and Sunday, September 21, GO train service on Lakeshore East will be adjusted due to planned construction.
GO buses will replace train service between Durham College Oshawa and Pickering GO stations. Lakeshore East GO train service will run between Pickering GO and Union Station.
- GO Bus Route 90F will run express between Durham College Oshawa and Pickering GO.
- GO Bus Route 90Z will make all stops between Durham College Oshawa and Pickering GO.
In addition, some late night trains on Friday, September 19 were also adjusted.
Lakeshore East Line rail service is being temporarily modified to accommodate critical track work, Metrolinx said. “Crews are performing important repairs to the Brock Road bridge…the bridge goes over active GO train tracks…this work can only be completed when train service is modified.”
If you regularly connect with GO bus route 88 (Oshawa-Peterborough), your connection time may change, and you may need to travel on an earlier trip to arrive at your destination on time, said a Metrolinx advisory.
It encouraged all customers to plan their trip in advance and sign up for on the GO alerts to be notified of any planned or unplanned service adjustments, delays, cancellations, or improvements
