Celebrate transit in Ottawa since 1870. From streetcars that were once pulled by horses to the modern, air-conditioned, red and white transit fleet that you see all around our nation’s capital, we’ve come a long way!
Through thick and thin, transit has been there to keep us moving.
We have finished selecting the names for Stage 2's new O-Train stations.

Ride with confidence throughout your trip.
From boarding the bus to exiting the fare gate, our commitment to the highest standards of health and safety is with you every step of the way.

Para Transpo customers can now provide their Presto card number to Para Transpo and our system will confirm to the operator that the pass is loaded.
Once you have provided your Presto card number, show your card to the operator for verification when boarding. There will be no need to carry a receipt with you.
