History

GO train service to Guelph originally began in 1990, serving the same station it currently does. In 1993, the route was cut back again to Georgetown after poor ridership. GO began an Environmental Assessment into upgrading the corridor in preparation for train service to Kitchener via Guelph in 2007. December 18, 2011 marked the first day of GO train service again to Guelph Central.

A new bus terminal serving Guelph Transit, Greyhound and GO buses was constructed in 2011 and completed in mid-2012, allowing all forms of transit service in the city to serve the GO station.

Connecting routes

Bays 1, 2, 21, and 22 are located on Macdonell Street, with the rest located inside the terminal (numbered clockwise from the Macdonell Street exit).
