Metrolinx mobility hubs are locations with significant levels of planned transit service, as identified by Metrolinx in Ontario, Canada, under The Big Move regional transportation plan. A mobility hub consists of a major transit station and the immediate surrounding area, where different forms of transportation come together, serving as the origin, destination or transfer point for a significant amount of trips. It is also a concentrated point of employment, housing, and recreation, making them places of significant economic development and activity where office buildings, hospitals, educational institutions, government service and information centres, shopping malls and restaurants can be located.

Of these, Metrolinx has undertaken studies on seven of them that provide a plan for the design and conceptual vision of the mobility hub in the future.
