Several senior management departures and Mayor Watson did not run in conjunction with the delays and
problems on the 2019 #ConfederationLine testing and opening months, later examined by the judicial inquiry. A P3 DBMO project much like the three LRT lines in the GTA.
BREAKING: Two senior transit executives at Metrolinx appear to be the casualties of a major shakeup at the provincial transit agency, Global News has learned, as the Crown corporation struggles with the delivery of multiple LRT projects.

When will we have a Confederation @GOtransit commuter rail Station connecting to #ConfederationLine in @Ottawacity?
The GTA gets 100% (Ont/Fed) capital funding for its transit projects, Mayor @_MarkSutcliffe only gets 2/3. And none for Stage 3 LRT from @fordnation p.
The new #ConfederationGO Station platform is steadily progressing! πβ¨ Upcoming stages of work include installing insulation, integrating platform heating, and pouring the concrete cover. Exciting milestones as we move closer to completion! π·ββοΈποΈ
Does anyone know what diameter the roadheaders hollowed out #ConfederationLine @OttawaTunnel ? Seems our 3 core stations were close enough proximity that no emergency exits needed. @ChittiMarco
#ConfederationLine and #TrilliumLine are supposed to be high-speed metros where they cross Greenbelt and similar. Yet TrilliumLine has pretty strict speed restrictions either side of Leitrim. And will Line 1/3 really achieve 80km/h for any distance?
@RM_Transit @ChittiMarco
We often look at countries with giant high-speed rail networks in awe, but there's yet another fast-growing, fast-moving transit trend taking over the world's newest large cities by storm β high-speed metros.

#Exclusive: Premier Doug Fordβs office directed Metrolinx to keep Crosstown opening date secret, emails show https://t.co/i3JTDMWhdG
Eglinton Crosstown is a public private partnership (P3) project.
Auditor General reports P3 projects cost 28% more & the public loses control of them.
Other P3 projects?
Hamilton & Ottawa LRTs.
Every hospital being built in Ontario.
Preparing to switch from SE Transitway bus to EW #ConfederationLine at Hurdman LRT Station. At the longest, most exposed, worst designed bus transfer loop ever.
It would be nice if @OC_Transpo published a similar #ConfederationLine diagram showing us where the βslow ordersβ are, especially the RIdeau, Lees, Hurdman and Tremblay curves. And E & W can be different.
And other (temporary) speed restrictions.
Ottawa #ConfederationLine #Citadis LRT, fully grade separated is 2.65m wide so it falls in at βmediumβ metro (with 90m long trains)? It is wider than the Montreal βMetroβ!
@ChittiMarco @RM_Transit
Or like the fully grade separated Ottawa #ConfederationLine. Here at Bayview Station Rd, formerly CPR Ottawa West: 60 years ago. Roughly same location/angle
@RM_Transit If it was supposed to be "better" than the regular streetcar, it should have honestly been built as an automated light metro, like, say, the Canada Line or the Copenhagen Metro
REM chief vows to improve system's winter reliability | @mgazette_works
(Ottawa #ConfederationLine has been pretty winter reliable this year!) https://t.co/nTfSxrpJ2j
September 2023, they spray painted the #ConfederationLine restraining rails fluorescent orange to show where insides of flanges might touch them. Since then they have been redone in fluorescent green! Rideau Station.
Apparently they replaced (some of) the restraining / check rail around Hurdman curves on the #ConfederationLine overnight and they are running LRT somewhat faster there.
@grahamctv From one colossal failure to another.
Further proof privatization of public transit projects & maintenance using P3βs doesnβt produce safe reliable transit on-time or on-budget!

Concrete debris falls from tunnel onto track #LRT shutdown in #Ottawa east end no word on return to service #NewBeginnings #ottnews
Yes, #ConfederationLine operators can and sometimes do take over operations. In fact they are required to do a certain number hours of active operations (non CBTC) per year.
@drivesincircles Yahbut #ConfederationLine also replaced a zillion express buses and Albert/Slater @OC_Transpo busjams. And the core part of my #97.
Two #CitadisSpirit trainsets on Ottawa #ConfederationLine are about 100m platform length. How long are 3 Flexity Freedom LRV trainsets for Eglinton @CrosstownTO?
Besides a good first look at the Eglinton Station platform, you can clearly see how eventually 3-LRV trains will fit in the underground stations.
