The Transitway is a big part of the Ottawa bus system. It provides rapid transit service across the entire city on bus-only roadways and intersects with the O-Train.

Park & Ride lots offer free parking (except Jeanne d'Arc, Telesat & Baseline).

You can then hop on Transitway route 95 , 96 or  97 for a quick trip to downtown.

Buy a Gold Park & Ride permit and reserve your parking space at one of the selected Park & Ride lots.

Trip planning is only a click, phone-call or email away.
