Hi all,

What do you think about the means of transportation in Ottawa ?

Is the network of means of transportation well developed?
What modes of transport are available?

Do you use them?

How much is a fare?

Are they relatively safe?

What is the mean of transportation you use the most in Ottawa?

Thanks in advance for participating!

I drive. Ottawa has bus routes throughout the region but no rapid transit such as trains. It is safe but when the drivers go on strike they paralize the entire capital region. Their last strike lasted months.

Traffic for commuters is brutal during rush hours. This city needs an alternative means of transportation.
