Significant traffic and transit disruptions are planned across Ottawa between Monday, May 26 and Tuesday, May 27 due to a visit from Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla.
The City of Ottawa is working closely with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), Ottawa Police Service (OPS) and other security partners to ensure that the safety of the King, Queen and our residents is maintained during the visit.
As a result, traffic disruptions will be experienced during limited times on the roads listed below. Some temporary closures may last multiple hours:
The morning and afternoon commutes on May 26 and 27 are not expected to be significantly impacted, however, for security reasons, the exact details and timing of road closures and other impacts to City services may be communicated at the last minute. We appreciate your patience and understanding as this visit takes place.
During motorcade movement, the Macdonald-Cartier and Portage bridges will have intermittent and temporary closures in both directions for all vehicular, cyclist and pedestrian traffic. The Alexandra and Chaudière bridges remain open in both directions.
Advice for vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians
If possible, residents should avoid unnecessary travel around these locations between May 26 and 27. If you need to travel, please allow for additional time, pay attention to signage and detours, and plan possible alternate routes.
The City’s online traffic map will have live updates on traffic impacts. Select “incidents” to see roads currently affected. You can also follow the City of Ottawa’s traffic account on X (formerly Twitter).
Advice for transit users
Some OC Transpo bus routes and Para Transpo service will experience travel delays due to road closures and various routes will experience detours during select time periods.
Customers can stay up to date on the latest transit information by visiting octranspo.com, calling 613-560-5000 or following OC Transpo’s X (formerly Twitter) account. Para Transpo customers can use My Para Transpo to find the latest information available about their trip.
Advice for business and property owners
At this time, the City is not anticipating an impact to residential waste collection as a result of the visit. Residents can stay informed of curbside collection delays by signing up at ottawa.ca/CollectionCalendar to receive important service alerts by e-mail, phone or X (formerly Twitter). Residents may also download the free Ottawa Collection Calendar mobile app for Apple and Android devices.
The City of Ottawa is responsible for ensuring residents feel safe in their community and in accessing the programs, businesses, services and supports that the City has to offer. The City values a diversity of minds, perspectives and lived experiences.
The road closures and increased security presence during the visit may be cause for stress and worry. The impact of a stressful event can be immediate or delayed and those affected can feel a range of emotions and reactions. If you are experiencing stress, worry or any negative emotions, reach out for help. Call the Distress Centre of Ottawa and Region at 613-238-3311 for services in English or French. Someone will be there to listen, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
