OC Transpo winter service begins Sunday, December 22
OC Transpo’s winter service begins Sunday, December 22. This winter, changes include bus service adjustments to get ready for the opening of O-Train Lines 2 and 4 on January 6, special holiday service, and changes to fares.
New winter schedules are available on octranspo.com. Before heading out, use the Travel Planner or Transit app to plan your trip.
Service adjustments for the opening of O-Train Lines 2 and 4
Starting on Sunday, December 22, Routes 74, 198, 278 and 406 will be extended to Limebank Station, and Line 2 buses will be renamed to B2 buses.
O-Train Lines 2 and 4 are planned to open for weekday service on Monday, January 6. As part of the phased opening, Line 2 and 4 service will be offered Monday-Friday for a minimum of two weeks. The second phase will see service expanded to include Saturdays. In the third and final phase, service will expand to seven days a week.
Bus service will continue to run in parallel with the new O-Train lines on B2 buses and Routes 97 and 99 during the phased opening, to assist customers in making the transition and provide backup in case of disruptions. Further bus route changes will come later in 2025.
Holiday service
Special holiday service will run from Monday, December 23, to Friday, January 3. Visit octranspo.com for information on hours of operation, frequency adjustments and schedules. Customers can access real-time schedule information, 24 hours a day, by using the Transit app, by calling 613-560-5000 or texting 560560 plus their four-digit bus stop number or first three letters of the station name.

Regular scheduled trips are automatically cancelled, but customers may book trips for these days by using My Para Transpo or by calling 613-560-5000 up to seven days before each holiday. Don’t forget to suspend your regular bookings if you are on vacation during the holiday season.
