NEW: OC Transpo to keep parallel bus service through the first winter when Trillium Line launches ottnews
The light-rail subcommittee received an update Friday morning on plans for OC Transpo bus service once the Trillium Line begins operations next fall. The current timeline calls for TransitNEXT to handover the Trillium Line to OC Transpo in late September, followed by testing before launch.
OC Transpo continued to run regular bus service for three weeks after the launch of the Confederation Line in September 2019, but then changed the bus routes to funnel all passengers to the light-rail transit light. In addition, OC Transpo will adjust current bus routes to make new connections at Limebank Station when the O-Train opens.
OC Transpo is developing a plan for replacement bus service on Line 2 and Line 4 following the launch. Scrimgeour says there will be no need for a replacement bus service to be in place in the event of issues with the launch of the Trillium Line, since a parallel bus service will already be in place.
