Burlington GO

Very great station, it’s a clean and smooth experience. Went here on the way to Niagara Falls and staff were super helpful. Would highly recommend going here if you take the GO Train to Niagara Falls? Not sure how I would recommend a GO Train station but just saying it’s good.

Burlington GO Station, a major transit hub in Burlington, Ontario, serves commuters traveling to and from Toronto and surrounding areas via GO Transit trains and buses. Here’s a summary of pros and cons based on user reviews: Pros: 1. Convenient Location: Situated near major highways and residential areas, Burlington GO Station offers easy access for commuters. 2. Parking Availability: The station has a large parking lot with plenty of spaces, making it convenient for drivers. There are also options for both free and reserved parking. 3. Public Transit Connections: It connects well with local Burlington Transit buses, providing smooth transfers for those traveling within the region. 4. Clean and Well-Maintained: Users frequently mention that the station is kept clean and has a modern design with recent renovations that improved facilities. Cons: 1. Crowds During Peak Hours: Like most GO stations, it can be very busy during rush hours, which may lead to long wait times and crowded platforms. 2. Limited Amenities: The station has basic facilities, but some travelers feel it lacks options for dining and retail compared to larger stations. 3. Ticket Kiosk and Customer Service: Limited ticket kiosks and sometimes long lines for assistance can be frustrating for new users or those needing help with ticketing. Overall, Burlington GO Station is praised for its convenience, parking, and cleanliness. However, peak-hour crowds and limited amenities are common complaints.

Great station with plenty of parking in the north parking lot. The South parking lot has limited parking though it is the transit hub and taxi stand. Better on the south side for pickup and dropping off. Free WiFi. Well patrolled by Metrolinx. Clean facility. Well marked. Parking lots are easy to access. Very busy during rush hour.

I actually love going to Burlington GO! The ride is nice and relaxing to get there from St. Cats! But once you get there, it’s not hard to navigate. The boards and schedules are quite clear and easy to locate and so are the ticket vendors and kiosks. The bathrooms are always clean and spacious to use! The only thing I will take off one point for is that the elevators need to be tended to more often and efficiently. It makes it very difficult for disabled, injured or pregnant individuals or mothers with strollers to access the platforms. The fact that there is a Tim’s is a huge bonus! Food and refreshments before you board?! Yes please!!!

I love getting on the Go bus and visiting Burlington for the day. I love the Tim Hortons inside the Burlington Go station. Your Burlington Go station is very nice inside, spacious and warm. It's much better than our bus terminal in St Catharines where I live. The Burlington Go station could use a few extra women's washroom stalls though, cause there's often a line up for the bathroom

I take the train 3 days out of the week, and it runs fine when I'm taking it. Improvements would be better bathroom commendations, having a TV with the news would be nice or the stock market polls

Once I learned how to use it and understand my way around, it was a great experience. However when asking a person that worked there a question, she couldn't be bothered to answer it. Just pointed at the board/tv screen and said nothing. Sometimes talking to someone is easier than just reading a screen. The rude itself was comfortable abd the person talking on the train was very informative.

I am disabled and the amount of help, really friendly help, I got from the staff was so nice. It us really rare that people are helpful when they are in a rush... but my experience with riding the Go train has shown me that there are really kind people all around that will go out of their way to help a stranger. So to all that help me...a great big Thank you 😊

When you take the bus from Niagara Falls,Canada , trying to go to Toronto, you need to stop at the Burlington Station in order to catch the train to take you to Union Station, where are you then can take an Uber or lots of street cars to get to your destination in Toronto. Unfortunately, you can't wait indoors for the train. You have to stand outside and freeze to death in the winter and die of heat, and get chased by bees in the summer But, it's a station, so what can you do?

The way google maps tells you to enter the station with your car is wrong. That way is blocked off due to construction. Also I saw roaches inside where the hallway is

Now that the new GO station is FINALLY finished, and even though Burlington Transit is still on the other side, they closed the temporary washrooms once construction was done. I know that this was the original intention. However, it was also the original plan that once the station was finished, both Burlington Transit and GO buses would have bus stops at new station. They should have kept them open until both GO and Burlington transit were both on the new side. So now I am expected to walk from the north side (10 min walk) to the new station to go to the bathroom than walk back. Not a big deal a 10 min walk but I will miss the Burlington transit bus to Hamilton for work if I need to go. So now I have to wait till I get to work. Also not happy they took away the portapottys they had for the Burlington transit drivers as now they have to stop at one of the bus stops to run somewhere to go to the bathroom. All metrolinx cares about is $ not what is best for customers or Burlington transit drivers. They should as most Burlington transit passengers have PRESTO cards.

A working departure/arrival board is desperately needed. Me and 20 other people had no idea which platform went to Union Station Oct 2, 2021 20:31 Train.

Leave the traffic behind! What a great find. For years, I have been driving to Port Credit and taking the GO train into Toronto. This.... THIS station is so much better! The drive from Buffalo to Burlington is a straight shot and takes exactly an hour from door to door. The Burlington GO station is being significantly upgraded and overhauled, and trains leave every half hour for Toronto. Parking is ample and free. I can't say enough good things about this station, and I can't wait for it to be finished!

Lets go to Burlington GO As far as GO stations go, this one is pretty decent. In fact I would say it's better than the average station. It has a huge parking garage which is great and makes me wonder why most other stations don't have one. Another thing I really like is that the platform where you are waiting for the train has sheltered seating areas. Genius. This not only provides shelter, it makes waiting for the train not a living hell during cold, windy or rainy days. Furthermore it prevents a traffic jam of people on the stairs which is where most people wait at stations that don't have sheltered seating. The only downside is the fact that there is construction and it may be confusing exactly where to go if it's your first time. Happy Commuting!

I need to know if the Fairview Road Go Station elevators are working, I am on a mobility scooter and for 2 years the elevators weren't accessible, in 2016 and 2017. I have no way to find out if the elevators are working, in the schedules it has said the Fairview station was accessible. Without an elevator, no it isn't.

this is a pretty great go station. there is addition parking provided. there are always machines open to buy your ticket and if you have to go to a teller, they're always friendly and great. there is a mini convenient store inside and the guy who works it is always in a great mood. they sell Jamaican patties so you can get a hot snack while you wait. if you show up super early there is a Walmart near by to kill time
