Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. March 5th, 2026

The Eastern extension of Ottawa’s LRT has hit a key milestone, and is now one step closer to its long-awaited grand opening. In Hour 1, we heard from Orleans South-Navan councillor Catherine Kitts. In Hour 3, we check in with Beacon Hill-Cyrville councillor Tim Tierney, who also serves on Ottawa’s Transit Committee. And in between, we turn things over to the mighty CFRA Nation. Once the system is officially launched, do you have faith that the latest stretch of LRT can deliver the goods? Text into the show or give us a ring, as we tackle today’s Question of the Day!
