Masks no longer mandatory on public transit but still strongly recommended

[guest]

As determined by the Province of Ontario, masks will no longer be mandatory on public transit starting Saturday, June 11.

While wearing a mask will no longer be required by law, Ottawa Public Health still strongly recommends people wear masks on OC Transpo buses and trains, in stations and shelters, and on Para Transpo minibuses and taxis.

• Hand sanitizer dispensers at O-Train stations and most Transitway stations
• Touch-free and online fare payment options
• Virtual Line at the OC Transpo Customer Service Centre in the Rideau Centre that lets customers reserve a spot without waiting in line
