Ottawa's Stage 2 is scheduled to start construction in 2019. It will include 3 extensions affecting 2 different lines plus a completely new spur line to the airport. Since the Stage 2 was first planned, they have added further extensions to all 3 extensions and got special funding for those additional extensions. Preliminary study has begun for Stage 3.
The main distinction between Ottawa's LRT plan and those in Vancouver and Montreal's REM is that Ottawa's system will be semi-automated while Vancouver and Montreal REM will be fully automated.
