Light Rail Transit (LTR) Technology Forum

The technology selected for Ottawa’s rail rapid transit network will depend on a number of inter-related factors that will have to be balanced to provide a system that is responsive to the climate, to the needs of the traveling public and the types of corridors that will be implemented throughout the life of the Transportation Master Plan (TMP).

This Technology Forum is providing an opportunity to bring together transit experts, technology providers, key stakeholders and the public to identify the best transit technology options for the City’s new LRT system.
