Light Rail Transit Update
Ottawa City Council approved a rapid transit plan in November 2008.
The approved plan includes Light Rail Transit (LRT) service along Carling as a supplementary corridor with rapid transit service along the Ottawa River Parkway, however, the routing is subject to Environmental Assessment (EA) studies, and the Western Corridor EA is considering rapid service along Carling versus the Ottawa River Parkway, among other things.

There will be on-going public consultation activities during both phases of the Western Light Rail Transit Corridor Planning and Environmental Assessment study, including several Public Open House events.
This first Public Open House was held on November 29th in order to provide an overview of the work underway, including information on the existing socio-economic and natural environments within the study area, project need and justification, project planning objectives and design criteria, alternative transit corridors, transit technology, and the methodology proposed to evaluate alternative transit corridors.
