Line 2 and 4 of the O-Train is starting its final testing, with officials saying the earliest opening date for the system could be mid-November.
The highly anticipated Light Rail Transit (LRT) lines will stretch to Limebank from the already-established Greenboro station. Line 4 from South Keys will then travel to the airport with officials saying it will be open next month if testing goes well.
The opening of the lines adds eight stations to the city’s growing network, with four new upgrades. According to OC Transpo it will make people’s commutes 15 minutes faster between South Keys and Bayview Station.
The system and its personnel are ready to bring on people after a successful trial running period over the last several months, officials noted.
