CFRA Live – TSB’s latest findings send another dark cloud of doubt over Ottawa’s LRT system

Published Feb 19, 2023, 2:46 AM

On Thursday, the TSB sent a stunning letter to the City of Ottawa, mere moments before the Light Rail Subcommittee convened for the first time. It previously said that some of the component failures from previous light rail incidents could be linked to the Alstom Citadis Spirit vehicle – a new model design that was made to the city's specifications. Is this service unreliable, or is it both unreliable and not safe to use? And with Phase Two just around the corner, how do we ensure that the next edition doesn’t run into similar issues? Riverside South-Findlay Creek councillor Steve Desroches joins Andrew Pinsent on today’s edition of CFRA Live.
