What we do
Our mandate is to deliver safe, reliable, and courteous service at an affordable price with minimal environmental impact. Together, we can decrease the number of vehicles on our roads and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
To achieve these goals, we develop and maintain transit services and programs in collaboration with the City of Ottawa and our riders.
O-Train
The Confederation and Trillium Lines are the fastest way to travel across Ottawa. Trains operate all day with departures every 5 minutes or less during peak times. From the train station, transfer to a local bus to complete your journey.
Quick facts:
- First section opened in 2001
- 13 new stations open along the Confederation Line in 2019

Park & Ride
Dozens of parking lots are available across Ottawa and nearby rural communities to support commuters. Escape the stress of traffic and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by parking at the lot nearest you and travelling by bus or O-Train.
