O-Train Lines 2 and 4 closed June 13 and 14 for planned maintenance

June 8, 2026
O-Train service on Lines 2 and 4 will be fully closed and replaced by R2 and Route 105 bus service on the weekend of June 13 and 14.

O-Train Lines 2 and 4 will be fully closed for maintenance on Saturday, June 13 and Sunday, June 14, and replacement bus service will operate.

For customers, this means that on June 13 and 14: 

  • Train service will not operate on Lines 2 and 4. 
  • R2 bus service will operate between Bayview and Limebank stations at a frequency of approximately every 12 minutes to ensure customers can complete their journeys. 
  • Route 105 service will replace Line 4 service, with supplemental buses added to provide service approximately every 15 minutes. 
  • OC Transpo staff will be present at key locations to assist customers.  

During the planned closure, crews will undertake several maintenance activities to ensure that the rail system continues to operate smoothly and safely for customers. Maintenance activities include an end-to-end track inspection and work within the Dow’s Lake Station tunnel, which requires a full closure of the lines. The work has been scheduled for a weekend when ridership is lower, to minimize the disruption for customers.

When her family doctor referred her to a dermatologist, she spent a lot of time online looking for clinics that would see her quickly. Just four weeks later, in August 2025, Ryoo saw a dermatologist. .entry-content > figure:nth-child(2) { display: block !important; } This...

As a child, I loved summer rain only as much as its worms on the driveway, on the sidewalk, on the road where cars passed until the next morning, which would be sunny and dry and full of bodies. As if umbilical, two worms could be born— I had learned from classmates—by snipping one in half. So I too conducted no great experiment, only easy cruelty, my heart a knotted spool. Boneless and blind as a needle, needy and pink, worms have five hearts and live best unseen. On days purified by rain, I watch them thread out of black soil, scolding you aren’t meant for this world with the knife of...

Child’s Play In “Leave the Kids Alone” (March/April), Simon Lewsen argues that we are helicopter-parenting children, who are not in as much danger as parents perceive, and that they in fact benefit from being empowered, age appropriately, to navigate life’s challenges. In Winnipeg, from age nine onward, my classmates and I all took city buses to school, and we thought nothing of taking those same buses across town after school. And then home again, after dark, in the winter. By contrast, I now often pull up behind a school bus dropping off a child right in front of their house, and the...
