Scarborough GO Station is a train station served by GO Transit's Lakeshore East line, located in the Scarborough district of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[1]
The station is located south of St. Clair Avenue, just west of Midland Avenue, at the end of Reeve Avenue. A footpath connects the community through Natal Park, from the southwest end of the parking lot. Elevator construction was completed in mid-February 2010 making the station fully accessible.
Formerly known as Scarborough Junction, the station had originally been located northeast of St. Clair Avenue on the west side of Midland Avenue, where the Stouffville line now branches off to the north on what was previously the CN Uxbridge Subdivision. The Scarborough Junction neighbourhood was named after the station. In 1967, the present station was relocated and opened for GO Transit service.[3]
Connecting transit[]
Directly served on the street in front of the station by Toronto Transit Commission bus routes 9 Bellamy and 102 Markham Rd, and nearby routes 12 Kingston Rd, 16 McCowan, 20 Cliffside and 113 Danforth which also allow for discounted transfers when connecting to or from GO Transit trains at this station.[4]
