I guess page 5 hasn't been updated since the last version as it still mentions "Deutsche Bahn International Operations GmbH)" being part of GO Expansion?

Apparently GO bus service will return to Humber College in January 2026, according to the TTC's website. I was wondering because I saw a poster in the subway that touted connections to GO, Miway and YRT on Line 6, but didn't mention Brampton Transit, which runs a lot more service there than Miway or YRT, and GO wouldn't even connect at all.
Transit hub
Passengers can connect with GO (as of January 2026), Brampton, MiWay, and York Region transit at the bus bay located near Humber College Station.

Could it be the 38 Bolton malton bus be one of the routes?

I’d like to know. The 38 hasn’t gone anywhere near that way since the Etobicoke North-Nobleton-Bolton branch disappeared quite a while ago.
It’d make sense when Woodbine GO station gets built, but I don't see the point of going to Etobicoke North vs. Malton unless service via Nobleton returns.

Its great that GO buses will go to Humber but its a little confusing on where it would go as most of the nearby GO hubs are already or will be serviced with local transit (Bramalea, Malton, Woodbine, Viscount/Pearson, Renforth, Sq One, Kipling, etc).
38 Bolton doesn’t exactly make sense unless they convert the route into an all day thing and probably short turn most of its runs within Brampton, but it probably also wouldn’t do as well as there is already the 50 Gore Rd heading in that direction.
Guessing it would be most likely that this route is a part of the Hwy 407 corridor, with the first stop either to Bramalea via 427/407 or Hwy 407 Station via 27/407, but we’ll have to wait and see until GO announces their service changes.

This is what happens when work is continually postponed earlier in the fall.

Thanks for those schedules cbrown2009, much appreciated.
When you consider Brampton has 800,000 and about another million to Kitchener, that is really lousy service. I know there are GO buses but they get stuck in the same traffic as everyone else. At a minimum, those frequencies should be doubled across the board. I realize Brampton is a problem with CN but surely they could run more trains to Bramalea with better bus connection until they fix the problems with CN at Brampton & Mt.Pleasant stations.

I mean that’s what they’re doing. There’s 30 minute train service to Bramalea most of the time on weekdays now and in the afternoon/early evening on weekends (it should be at all times, but I digress).
Mount Pleasant isn’t a problem, it’s Downtown Brampton. And that’s in the planning stages now.
Brampton has been neglected by GO for decades, but it’s certainly not these days.
