Long-term Line 1 closure at St. Laurent for major repairs?? I hope not. This would be catastrophic.

Maybe this time they'll actually improve the bus passenger zone, which was pledged to have happened at the same time they redid the bus deck from above over the past year.

RailFans Canada has a new live cam set-up at Ottawa's Bayview Station:

They are always looking for new people to host these rail cams.

What gives you that impression? They were literally doing concrete replacement works on the surface bus loop just this past summer.
