Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. May 14th, 2026

May 14, 2026

OC Transpo has released a batch of information over the past few days, as it tries to rectify LRT problems on Line 1 and launch another phase of the system. Are we on the right track to stabilize public transit in Canada's Capital? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, if you typically hop on the 417 from Pinecrest Road, please take note. On Saturday, drivers will need to take a detour to access the Queensway, as Stage 2 of O-Train construction carries on. College Ward councillor Laine Johnson pays us a visit in Hour 3. Plus, have you ever heard of ‘No Mow May’? Gardening expert Carson Arthur tells us all about it in this week’s edition of ‘In The Garden’. Got a question for Carson? Email the crew, text it in, or give us a ring at 613-521-TALK!
