Riders using the Durham College Oshawa GO station are being asked to share their feedback on travel plans to help shape transit services for the upcoming summer months. The provincial transit agency GO Transit has launched a five-minute survey to better understand how commuter needs shift during June and July.

The survey is open to all transit users who travel through the station at 915 Bloor Street West in Oshawa, Ontario. As the easternmost stop in the transit network, the station serves as a major connection point for residents heading toward Toronto. Officials from Metrolinx, the parent organization for GO Transit, stated they intend to use the collected feedback to guide service decisions as the warmer season approaches.

This initiative follows a period of growth for the facility, which was renamed from Oshawa GO to Durham College Oshawa GO in 2022 following a partnership between the transit agency and Durham College. In recent years, the station has seen service improvements, including the expansion of weekend train frequency on the Lakeshore East line, which now runs every 15 minutes during afternoons and evenings.

While gathering input for the summer, the transit agency continues to manage ongoing maintenance projects. Travelers recently experienced temporary disruptions on the weekend of April 11-12, 2026, when bus service replaced trains between Durham College Oshawa and Pickering GO stations to accommodate work on the line.

The transit agency has historically adjusted summer operations to provide seasonal bus routes to recreational destinations such as the Toronto Zoo and Canada‘s Wonderland. Riders can participate in the survey through the official GO Transit station website to provide input on their transit requirements for the coming season.
