Rideau River Pedestrian Bridge Update The contractor is in the final stages of activities that are required to complete the bridge and optimistically, there is 3 weeks of work remaining. This will be followed by final inspections. Fingers crossed, June opening.
Such a nice train and upgrade for Ottawa. Swiss perfection and design. Can't wait to ride end to end on the expanded line later this year.

Looking upstream on Rideau River, a Stadler FLIRT crosses towards @Carleton_U Station. Appreciate how long these new trainsets are compared to a single Coradia LINT previously. More capacity and doors!
Stadler FLIRT zips over rehabilitated single track Rideau River rapids, from Mooney’s Bay Station to @Carleton_U Station. In front is new ped bridge to parkland paths, to finally open within a month according to Councillor @RiverWardRiley today.
For emergency exit from the former CPR tunnel under the Rideau Canal, next Dows Lake, this new escape stairway has been installed. A lot of people on the longer light diesel trains!
Coupled Alstom Coradia LINT heads North from Carleton Station. Remember that when open, Line 2 will operate with a mixed fleet of the new Stadler FLIRT and the existing Alstom trainsets.

After passing a new Stadler FLIRT waiting @Carleton_U Trillium Line 2 Station, a coupled pair of older Coradia LINT heads North onto the single track to Carling and Bayview. How soon to opening? All those @OC_Transpo Operators being trained!

Last chance to ride @VIA_Rail Budd RDCs? - Trains Will they be replaced by HEP coaches, a baggage car and a locomotive? Seems to be a short wye in White River. Or use a NA compliant Stadler FLIRT? Lower floors, customizable for baggage car space. trains.com/trn/railroads/…

From @SwanBoatSteve, streetcar average speed in 2023 was down 26% from 2019. Led by an absolutely abysmal drop in the speed of the King and Queen streetcars, which also had peak vehicles cut by 1/3. A complete gut of the most successful streetcar routes. stevemunro.ca/2024/04/23/ttc…
In Canada 100% of freight is diesel. Even tho we have much inexpensive hydro / nuclear electricity. Unless you have high density of accelerating trains like @GOExpansion, OCS is too expensive. @25kV @RailCanada

@ChimeWhistle @25kV @TodaysRailways I was always under the impression that electric traction was generally more economical than diesel, it just had a higher upfront cost. Is this inaccurate, or are there specific operational conditions here (Train size, scheduling/density, energy costs, etc) making it uneconomical?

@rail613 @Carleton_U Someday that will be a classic shot for springtime in Ottawa: a red and white passenger train gliding over the rushing rapids, people walking and biking another bridge just beside.
@rail613 @Carleton_U @OC_Transpo They won’t commit to a date so they don’t mess it up like they’ve done in the past, but I do believe training, testing and commissioning are going well at least. Hope it’s by the fall at the latest.
@CapitalCity613 Why would the dense city pay for urban sprawl transit?
@CapitalCity613 I’m no expert in this, but I have lived in cities with competing municipalities pursuing their own interests and it’s much worse than the amalgamated mega city model imo. See City of Victoria and surrounding municipalities for a lesson in disjointed traffic and transit planning.
@CapitalCity613 Throw in a city congestion charge as well!
@CapitalCity613 Don’t forget the toll booths at the borders.
@CapitalCity613 While I would love to see that, East and West would go insolvent because of their sprawl. They need the core to subsidize their status quo. I think it would ultimately lead to better and more balanced suburbs though as they would need to rebalance their development patterns.
@ajprince @rail613 @Carleton_U @OC_Transpo I think the expectation is that months becomes month imminently... hence the May 31 date for the next meeting about the last timelines.
@rail613 @Carleton_U @OC_Transpo I agree. I caught one departing Bayview last week. You don’t hear the engine revving up (like the Alstom’s )
Another option is to put roundabout at Jeanne d'Arc and Orleans where it would serve two LRT stations and speedup a major intersection. Yes, empty OCT buses will drive farther but the space for a roundabout for a Uturn in an articulated bus is more available there.
We don't need a narrowing roundabout in front of an elementary school. We need a widened roadway with a Uturn half roundabout not quite in front of fire hall down the road. Likely with lights for fire engine movements. Take the land from those large parks.
Sooner than later, we'll be able to ride the train AND watch it go by from the new Rideau River bridge! Exciting times are coming up in Ottawa.

@HenriBreboeuf @christaggart @WrinnChris In 2014, the city lucked out because then it was a relatively young fleet after the 2011 service changes, helping to mitigate that reduction... but now, the same buses are end of life and approaching an asset reliability like existed in 2008 before obtaining them.
