Ottawa O-Train - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia OC Transpo operates it under the official name of ‘Capital Railway’, which appears on the trains along with their regular logo. It is legally considered a mainline railway despite being used for local public transport purposes, and the service it provides at present is, in terms of its route and service frequency, more like that of an urban railway than a metro or tramway. The station announcements and all signs are bilingual in English and French; a few features of the trains are also marked in German as a result of their design heritage. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/O-Train   (1885 words)

Urban Transportation Showcase Program OC Transpo cites Ottawa Mayor Bob Chiarelli (who was the chair of the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton at the time that this project was approved) and the municipal council, as the pilot project’s main champions. Instead, OC Transpo installed continuous welded rail in the summer of 2003 at a cost of $2.2 million, adding to the original capital budget for the project. In its final report to city council, OC Transpo estimated that if the O-Train were removed, the cost to purchase additional buses would take up most of the resources for growth planned in the 2003 budget. www.tc.gc.ca /programs/environment/Utsp/otrainlightrailproject.htm   (3068 words)

MINUTES With regards to accessibility of the Bayview Station, he indicated that he has some photos which illustrate how the railway track could be raised to reduce the climb from the transit station to the light rail platform. She emphasized that the Motion deals with safety audits of presently constructed transitway stations, not of new plans of future stations and it is much easier to use police officers from the local districts who will be policing those stations to do the safety audit with residents, rather than with the specialist, Constable Van Ryswyk.

ERA Online Swindler Transit News Buses are the backbone of OC Transpo, the transit system that serves Ottawa and the city of Gatineau, across the Ottawa River in Quebec. While the Sheppard stations appear spacious in comparison to many of their TTC counterparts, the platforms are actually substantially shorter, able to accommodate only four-car trains as opposed to the six-car configurations found on the system's other lines. But station platforms and concourses are finished with an eclectic mix of tiled murals and geometric designs, which often have reference points to the intersections where they are situated. erausa.org /swindler/2002_0504-0511.php   (18904 words)

05310002 The $150,000 study, unveiled at the Societe de transport de I'Outaouais (STO) offices in Hull yesterday, was led by the STO and drew financial support from OC Transpo, the City of Ottawa, the Outaouais Urban Community, the National Capital Commission and Quebec's Transport Ministry. Helen Gault, OC Transpo manager of transit services, said the city's contract with Bombardier allows four years in which to swap its diesel trains for electric-powered trains that would match those recommended in this study.

Ottawa Transit Bulletin-July 2001 OC Transpo, however, has enough of a challenge keeping its existing technology running, such as the TV screens to show bus times at many transitway stations. All that needs to be built along the route are the stations, the passing track at Carleton, and the ramp at the Bayview station. As for the night stops and local routes, this may seem confusing at times, but it is often impractical at stations for a local route to go to the transitway stop, and also impractical for a transitway route to head up to the local level. otra.sandelman.ca /otb/2001-July.html   (2202 words)

However, I am not sure yet how we are going to get from the hotel to Bayview Station to catch the "O" train.. Most people don't know about the two found to the right of the escalator as you go up to the departures level, so the lineup there is usually very short if the stations are open. www.flyertalk.com /forum/archive/index.php/t-14790.html   (2050 words)

afz20.htm The station at Bayview should be designed to provide direct access from the train to every bus route (regular, peak period, and express) on the Transitway. I think the formation of an OC Transpo Users Association would add the 'third leg' on the alternatives-mode 'stool' (until the fourth 'leg,' a taxi-users group, is formed) and, with the current transit review, should go ahead first. It determined that the cost of implementing a pilot project would be about $16 million, and that operating costs per passenger would be in the range of OC Transpo costs. afo.sandelman.ca /afz/20/afz20.htm   (7141 words)
