Cloth masks on transit
The provincial requirement for wearing masks on public transit has been extended to June 11. The City’s Transit By-law mask requirement remains in place. Customers and employees will need to continue to wear a mask in all:
OC Transpo continues to follow public health guidelines to keep customers safe. Please follow Ottawa Public Health guidelines. Do not take public transit if you are sick, required to isolate or have tested positive for COVID-19.
Thank you for your continued cooperation.
Starting in late April, permanent operator barriers are being installed on OC Transpo's bus fleet. Over 750 articulated, double-decker, and 40-foot buses will be equipped with an operator barrier by the end of August 2021.
Operator barriers, also known as shields, improve the workplace safety of our bus operators and enhance the overall safety of our customers.
