First seven-metre minibus for Para Transpo arrives

We're happy to introduce the first of our new seven-metre minibuses for Para Transpo! This vehicle arrived in Ottawa in February. Since then, it has been going through inspections and testing. Para Transpo operators will also have the opportunity to get comfortable with the vehicle before it goes into service.
Keep up with our social media and we'll let you know when the vehicle hits the road for the first time.

Project Spotlight: Stage 2 2025 Lookahead

The O-Train Extension project is transforming Ottawa and its transit system. We’re adding 24 stations, 44 kilometres of rail, and 45 new trains to the O-Train network. When the project is complete, we will have more than tripled the length of our rail system from 20 kilometres in 2019 to 64 kilometres as we extend the O-Train system farther south, east, and west.

New ways to bus are coming to Ottawa!

Frequent. Local. Connected.

OC Transpo’s new bus network will focus on frequency, local service in your neighbourhood, and connections to O-Train Lines 1 and 2 and key destinations.

New Ways to Bus is about responding to changes in customers’ travel needs and ridership levels. It will significantly change OC Transpo’s bus network and is a big step towards meeting our service reliability target of 99.5 per cent.
