Finding the Lab

By GO Transit

GO_Transit_logo.svg_If you are traveling from Toronto or farther East, you can use the GO trains and bus routes to get directly onto campus.

The Lakeshore West line travels from Union Station to Aldershot Station. This trip is approximately an hour long. On weekdays, the train leaves every half hour, with express lines opening up between 4pm-6:30pm. From Aldershot, there is a direct bus line onto campus grounds (bus 15). Follow the walking instructions below to reach Togo Salmon Hall from the bus loop.

During weekends, while the Lakeshore West train runs regularly, the Aldershot-McMaster bus line 15 does not run.  In these situations we recommend taking the alternate bus from Aldershot-to downtown Hamilton, and walking from the first stop at Columbia College. 

Always check with GO transit before making your trip as these schedules are subject to change.

If you are arriving from the GO transit bus loop–green line

Take the path on the left (facing the large chimney) onto Scholar road. Travel straight until you see an archway on the left-hand side (where the road ends).

Go through here and climb up the wide stairway on the right and walk until you’re in the middle of the courtyard. On your right should be sliding doors going into the Student Centre, and on your left should be Togo Salmon Hall. Enter the left-wing door and take the elevators up.
