All light rail systems require regular maintenance to ensure their long-term sustainability and reliability. This year’s maintenance work includes the following activities:

  • Work to address water infiltration in the tunnel, east of Rideau Station
  • Annual rail grinding across the entire line to reduce noise and vibration
  • Overhead Catenary System, switch and track related maintenance and inspections
  • The removal of vegetation within the guideway
  • General maintenance and cleaning activities including the cleaning of glass and artwork, paint removal at specific locations in downtown tunnel stations, concrete, and tile repairs
