Grimsby GO Station is a proposed commuter rail station on the GO Transit train and bus network in Southern Ontario, Canada. Located in the town of Grimsby in the Regional Municipality of Niagara, it would be a stop on the Lakeshore West line, east of the proposed Confederation GO Station in Hamilton.[1] It was expected to open in 2021[2] and would have been the first station to open in the planned Niagara extension, which will also include stops at St. Catharines and Niagara Falls stations.[2]
Three potential sites for the station along the Grimsby Subdivision Canadian National Railway track were considered. The three sites were at Bartlett Avenue in the east, at Victoria Avenue in the town centre adjacent to the Grimsby station used by Via Rail, and at Casablanca Boulevard in the west.[3][4]
In November 2018, Metrolinx sent a letter to the government of the Regional Municipality of Niagara stating that it was halting the delivery process for this station and other stations in the Niagara extension, as the Government of Ontario was instead seeking private financing of their construction.[5]
