@@pattheegreatthis is what Ottawa’s contract liability clause does. Every delay in production is a huge legal look to see whose fault it is so the delay is longer.
What a fiasco. The opening of line 2/4 is the only part of the system that salvages it for me. Lifelong transit user (winters mostly), and living off of Main Street, the current bus connections to my work just don’t cut it. Unreliable timing, and best case it’s a 35 minute connection to my work, but with delays or waiting based on my ideal departure time, that usually adds 10-20 minutes, so often my 50 minute walk is competitive against the bus. Further, I shouldn’t leave an articulated bus with back pain from the terrible rides, bouncing around, and so a comfortable, smooth ride on rails will get me back to using it.
Love to see the figures on whether it supports itself with enough ridership. Parisien built "too light rail" for the coldest capital in the free world, what could go wrong?
I’m shocked that something in Trudumb’s neck of the woods took so long to build. I assumed he would throw infinite amounts of money at it to maintain liberal support.
Even Ottawa is ready to go again, where is Eglington Crosstown .....
the more transit the better
They don’t want to rush. 30 months late, I think it’s a little late to be rushing at this point. What a joke.
This is what DEI leads to

If anything, they should do the reverse: open on weekends when there is less travel demand. And then you have much more time for troubleshooting.
That wouldn't be much use to commuters. We've already waited an extra two years.
Will it work in snow, rain, heat, and cold?
Probs but don’t forget the increase in the fair
Wayyyy to much bureaucracy in Canada to just build what citizens need. Happy to see Ottawa get its LRT finally opened.
The Confederation line has been running for over five years, and before the renovation what is now the Trillium line ran for more than twenty.
It is a shame that it took so long time. Just ask japan to make one. It would have been cheaper faster safer and on schedule..
On schedule is false. Clearly you've never been to Japan.
Eglinton crosstown leaves the chat*

If Tallinn, Estonia can use modern trams from Spain, I’m sure Ottawa will be fine with French trams.
Give it to Metrolinx and it will never open.😂😂
✨🙂👍✨
Everything in Ottawa is cockeyed.
The design is so ugly though, something out of 1990 or to be beneficial and generous 2000

We don't care, we want Trudeau in jail
Why don't you marry him?
This is local city project not a federal one, trudeau has no connection, impact on this
Thx i know that already @@hikarikaguraenjoyer9918
Look at those city fluffers talking like it's going to work, but knowing it's just another taxpayer funded money pit.
