With the exception of TTC riders, it will soon be free for GO Transit customers in many parts of the GTHA to connect to local transit as part of a new program announced by the provincial government on Tuesday.

The province says starting March 14, local transit will be free for customers connecting to and from GO Transit on a number of municipal transit systems with GO Transit co-fare agreements. This includes Mississauga’s Mi-Way system as well as Durham Region Transit, Milton Transit, Grand River Transit, Guelph Transit, Oakville Transit, Brampton Transit, Hamilton Street Railway, Burlington Transit, Bradford West Gwillimbury Transit, York Region Transit and Barrie Transit.

“As we cut costs for drivers, including by eliminating licence sticker renewal fees and removing tolls on Highways 412 and 418, we’re also slashing fares to keep more money in the pockets of families and young people when they need it most and making it easier to get from point A to B.” "It’s so important that all orders of government work together to make transit more affordable for residents, and today’s announcement is a significant step forward,” Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie said in a written statement released Tuesday.
