Stage 2 Light Rail Transit Project
Stage 2 will change the way we move around Ottawa. Think about it: 44 kilometres of rail and 24 new stations. That means shorter commutes, cleaner air, and a stronger economy. When complete, Stage 2 will bring 77% of residents within five kilometres of rail.

Stage 2 is a package of three extensions – south, east, and west.
- The O-Train South extension will see rail service continue from Greenboro to Limebank in Riverside South, while adding a link to the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport.
- The O-Train East extension will see LRT continue from Blair to Place d’Orléans Station, and then all the way to Trim Road
- The O-Train West extension will see LRT continue from Tunney’s Pasture to Moodie and Baseline Stations.
