Aldershot GO Mobility Hub
The Aldershot GO Mobility Hub is a locally recognized Mobility Hub centred around the Aldershot GO Station. The Aldershot GO Mobility Hub study area boundary is comprised of an area of approximately 800m around the GO Station, south of Highway 403, along Waterdown Road and extending along the Plains Road corridor.
As Burlington grows over the next 20+ years, complete, compact neighbourhoods will be built around the city's GO stations and the downtown. These areas are called Mobility Hubs.
The City is creating an Area Specific Plan (secondary plan) to guide future growth in the Aldershot GO Mobility Hub. The plan will focus on creating a complete community that is environmentally-friendly, infrastructure-efficient, walkable, bikable, and supports local and regional transit with a mix of uses such as employment, housing, recreation and shopping.

| Draft Precinct Plan - May 2018 |
|
In May 2017, we heard from the community about what people value in the area, and in September 2017 we received community feedback on two draft concepts showing different options where future growth could be accommodated. With that feedback, a high-level preferred concept for the Aldershot GO Mobility Hub was presented to the Planning and Development Committee of Council for consideration on Dec. 4, 2017. With that input, along with information from ongoing technical studies, a draft precinct plan for the Aldershot GO Mobility Hub was produced. The draft precinct plan will define a vision for areas within the Mobility Hub, to guide future development through the use of land such as residential and commercial, height, urban design considerations and more. On Thursday, May 3, 2018, a drop-in open house was held at East Plains United Church to provide the public with an opportunity to review and share comments about the draft precinct plan for the Aldershot GO Mobility Hub. Additional drop-in sessions open to the public were held on:
