Ottawa's train service faces significant disruptions as 70% of Line 1 cars are out of service

Seventy percent of Ottawa's Line 1 train cars are out of service due to a bearing issue. Only 30% of Line 1 trains are operational, with five percent of bus trips cancelled. This reduction impacts ridership capacity. OC Transpo aims to have twenty trains running by Monday, while bus service is also scaled back due to an aging fleet and mechanic shortages.
