Seasonal route changes began Sunday, affecting some popular routes and the replacement buses for the O-Train Line 2, among other changes. ottnews octranspo

Notably, routes 12 and 15 are returning to their pre-construction routing. The routes were detoured due to construction on Montreal Road but, as of Sunday, OC Transpo says the 12, between Blair and Parliament stations, will no longer serve St. Laurent Station, and downtown routing will operate via Elgin and Queen streets, rather than Wellington Street. The 15 will only operate during peak periods on weekdays and will not operate on weekends. It will also not travel down Blair Road.

There are some select frequency adjustments to certain individual trips on some routes that OC Transpo says will better serve customers and improve service reliability. Three peak-service express routes are being adjusted to serve commuters heading downtown. The 228 now serves Chapel Hill Station to provide a link to Blair Station and the LRT. Morning trips on route 231 are being extended to start on Innes Road, west of Frank Bender Street, and the 6:56 a.m. trip on route 261 will now begin at 6:45 a.m.

Frequency on the Line 2 replacement bus and on route 25 is being reduced on weekdays due to lower ridership at Carleton University and La Cité.Full details and the travel planner are available on
