Streetsville GO Station is a GO Transit railway station on the Milton line in the Greater Toronto Area, Ontario, Canada. It is located in the community of Streetsville in Mississauga, basically resembling the atmosphere of a heritage site in a modern city. It is situated at 45 Thomas Street, near Britannia Road and Mississauga Road (Queen Street in Streetsville).
Like most GO stations, Streetsville offers parking for commuters, a bus loop, and a station building housing ticket sales and a waiting room.
Although ridership on the Milton line has grown beyond GO's expectations, it is not possible to run more trains, because the tracks are already busy with Canadian Pacific Railway freight traffic. In order to increase capacity, GO plans to extend the platforms to accommodate trains with twelve carriages rather than the current ten. As a temporary solution, extensive train-bus services help alleviate congestion.
Streetsville is one of the only few stations on the Milton Line, along with Dixie and Milton to offer facilities for those dependent on mobility aids for the train services.
