Oshawa Central GO Station


Oshawa Central GO Station is a planned GO Transit train station to be built by Metrolinx in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada as part of the approved expansion of train service on the Lakeshore East line to Bowmanville. It will be built along an existing freight rail line owned by Canadian Pacific Railway, on a section of land formerly occupied by Ontario Malleable Iron Company until 1977 and later by Knob Hill Farms at 500 Howard Street in downtown Oshawa.

History

GO Transit plans to abandon service at its existing Oshawa GO Station once the expansion is completed and, together with nearby Thornton's Corners GO Station, this station will provide service for Oshawa. Approximately 1,228 parking spaces will be supplied on opening day, and future parking expansions will be possible. Bike shelters, a bus loop and a “Kiss and Ride” area will be included. GO Transit plans to work with the City of Oshawa and preserve older façade sections of a building on the station site.
