O-Train Line 1 service will not run between Tunney’s Pasture and Blair stations on Sunday, December 1 from 8 am to 12:30 pm. Full Line 1 service will resume at 12:30 pm.
During the temporary closure, R1 replacement bus service will run from 8 am to 1 pm between Tunney’s Pasture and Blair stations. In addition to R1, shuttle bus service will run between St-Laurent and Cyrville stations, and between Lees Station and Mackenzie King Bridge, until 1 pm.
This service adjustment is required for testing of Stage 2 software integration for the train control system, including the high-speed data radio, camera, and passenger information systems. This testing is a key step towards the launch of the expanded O-Train network.
