Switch issue causing delays on O-Train Line 2 at South Keys Station
Commuters are being warned to expect delays on O-Train Line 2 today due to switch issue at South Keys. The five-month-old line runs between Bayview Station and Limebank Station. In a memo to council, Transit Services general manager Renée Amilcar says Line 2 is stopping at all stations, but customers must change trains at South Keys to continue their trip. 'Due to an ongoing switch issue customers will experience longer travel times on Line 2,' Amilcar said. 'Line 2 is currently servicing all stations, but only one platform at South Keys Station.' Service from South Keys to Bayview is operating on the northbound platform, while service from South Keys to Limebank is operating on the southbound platform. Amilcar says the switch issue is expected to continue for the rest of the day, and customers will be required to change trains at South Keyes. 'This is a known issue with this switch that TransitNext was unable to resolve during the overnight hours yesterday,' Amilcar said. 'They will continue the repairs tonight after service concludes. ' Line 4 is currently running between South Keys Station and the Ottawa International Airport.
