GO Transit Help
I need help getting to McMaster tomorrow from Mississauga.
The earliest Square One to Mac bus leaves at 1:07 PM, which is a bit too late as I miss most of the morning SOCS activities.
I would really appreciate any help on how to get a GO Bus from Mississauga to Hamilton and how to use the HSR to get to Mac (not familiar with it at all).
Thanks very very much

You can come using the Lakeshore West GO route (so Clarkson or Port Credit, whichever is closest to you).

You'll get off at the GO Station in downtown Hamilton. From there, you'll need to take the HSR.

You can use their Google maps program to get you to Mac. The address of Hamilton GO is 36 Hunter St. East, and Mac's address is 1280 Main Street West.

yes, that's correct. they changed the schedules for the summer in may, and the usual hourly Sunday buses now start at 1 pm
they might change it back later; the first Sunday bus used to be before noon i think
