Metrolinx continues to improve safety and amenities at Oakville GO Station, as part of the GO Expansion Program.

Starting Monday, September 13, GO Transit contractors are installing tactile yellow safety tiles on the east side of platforms 3 and 4 to remind you how far back to stand. This temporarily changes how you board your train.
