What you need to know about the 2025 Ford Fireworks
Many Windsor-Essex residents and visitors take in the Ford Fireworks over the Detroit River as a kickoff to summer. The 67th edition of the fireworks start at 9:55 p.m. on Monday. Viewing options A number of venues have special viewing parties along Windsor's Waterfront. Bistro at the River hosts its Windsor Riverfront Fireworks Party, River Room Restaurant is having a Ford Fireworks Buffet, St. Clair College Centre for the Arts hosts a charity fireworks party and Windsor Premier Cruises is having a Fireworks Cruise. However, organizers say some of the best seats are also along the riverside parks and people are invited to bring a lawn chair or blanket. Safety tips for parents All families attending the show along the riverfront are being asked to take photo of their kids at the beginning of the event, in the same clothes they're wearing that night. Police say this will ensure you can provide officers with a recent and accurate photo if they are separated during the evening. Choose a designated meeting spot ahead of time in case you become separated. If your child becomes lost, report it immediately to the nearest police officer. Free Transit and shuttle services Thanks to Zehrs, residents can ride the bus for free to see the fireworks. Free City buses will run starting at 6 p.m. until the end of the service day. In addition, park 'n' ride shuttle buses will operate from Devonshire Mall beginning at approximately 6 p.m. and continuing until 9:30 p.m. Return shuttles will depart immediately following the fireworks, running until approximately 12:15 a.m. or until all passengers in line have boarded a bus back to their vehicle at Devonshire Mall. This annual event includes our Stuff the Transit Windsor Bus initiative—visitors are encouraged to bring non-perishable food donations to help support local food banks. Also, avoid the annual parking issues and road closures by enjoying the free ride from Devonshire Mall to the Windsor riverfront and back. Shuttles leave Devonshire Mall (3100 Howard Avenue) starting at 6 p.m. from Sydney Avenue, and the last shuttle will return to the mall from a pickup location across from the Windsor Arena on McDougall Street near Wyandotte Street West directly after the fireworks until midnight.

O-Train running at reduced speeds as temperature soars above 30 C
An O-Train on Line 1 pulls into Bayview Station in this undated image. (Natalie van Rooy/CTV News Ottawa) Your train trip may be a little slower today, as both OC Transpo and VIA Rail implement speed restrictions due to the hot weather. A heat warning remains in effect for Ottawa today, with the temperature expected to hit 36 C. OC Transpo has temporary speed restrictions on O-Train Line 1, Line 2 and Line 4 due to the hot weather, the transit service tells CTV News Ottawa. OC Transpo says when the temperature climbs above 30 C, procedures are in place to safely run trains on above-round sections of the track. 'Safety is paramount and we take numerous precautions to ensure our trains and rail are protected during extreme temperatures,' OC Transpo says on its website. 'All railroads can experience sun kinks, and at OC Transpo we have procedures in place that allow us to safely operate the O-Train.' Sun kinks are when a piece of track warps, bends or buckles during the extreme heat. OC Transpo says slowing down the train on above-ground sections of the train will protect the trains and decrease the chances of sun kinks expanding and becoming worse. 'When the temperature drops below 30 degrees Celsius, trains will return to their normal speeds,' the transit service says. Maintenance staff will also be increasing inspections on Line 1, Line 2 and Line 4. VIA Rail VIA Rail is warning travellers may experience delays on trains operating from Ottawa to Montreal and Toronto due to the heat. The Crown corporation says delays are possible on all trains operating on the Windsor-Quebec City corridor. 'For safety purposes, the railway infrastructure owner could be forced to impose speed restrictions, which could result in delays at departure or on route,' VIA Rail said on X.
