What the labels mean

Live
a vehicle is being tracked and this is its predicted time
Not published
OC Transpo publishes no live times for O-Train lines, so this will not become live

Alerts and disruptions

Station-specific matching unavailable

The current combined alert sources do not provide a complete, verified station-to-feature match for entrances, elevators, pathways, and platforms. This page therefore does not claim that there are no disruptions. Check network alerts and official rider help before relying on an accessible path.

Lines served (9)

OC Transpo does not publish live train positions or predictions for O-Train lines. Train times shown here therefore come from the timetable.

Platforms and wayfinding (6)

Each row is an individual platform stop. Open it for departures from that platform; use the station board above for every platform together.

The imported transit source does not publish station entrances, indoor pathways, step-free routes, or bay-to-entrance instructions. We do not invent a “get me there” route without that geometry.

The platform list above is the structured text alternative to the station-centre map link. It includes every linked platform record that the current imported feed provides.

Transfers and paths

Official station-path evidence

Otranspo reads the optional GTFS station files separately from the timetable. A linked platform does not prove that a physical path exists, is open, or is step-free.

This feed version contains no published station path or transfer rule that can support a platform-to-platform guide.

A published path is not a verified accessible path. It does not prove that elevators are operating, every entrance is represented, or the route is suitable for a particular rider.

Accessibility

OC Transpo publishes no accessibility data for its stops, so we show none. An absent value is not a confirmation, and a guess here could send someone to a platform they cannot use.

Published station accessibility
Unverified. The imported station record does not confirm a complete accessible route.
Current operating condition
Unknown. Current alerts cannot be matched completely to every entrance, elevator, pathway, and platform.

No verified accessible alternative is available in current data.

Accessibility chain

Unknown. Available sources do not confirm a complete accessible trip.

All 8 links are unverified. Review the element list before relying on this station for an accessible trip.

Verdict

When this station runs late

Early evidence: 5 of 20 weekdays. This updates hourly. Results become more certain as more trips are observed.

69.4% of arrivals within 5 minutes, from 6,806 arrivals over 5 weekdays. The worst hour is 16:00 at 53%.

Half the arrivals are 3 min late. The worst 5% are 13 min late.

Conventional bus arrivals at OC Transpo and STO stations. Express (200/500), shopper/community (300), event (400), and school (600) routes are excluded because each needs a purpose-specific measure. STO routes are included and graded by their own families: Rapibus 100, 200, 400 and 800 count, and STO school journeys numbered 300 and above are excluded the way OC Transpo’s 600s are. Each operator is measured against its own service, never against the other’s. This station also has 1 O-Train line. This line is not included because OC Transpo does not publish realtime rail data.

We use the agency’s last prediction within ten minutes of each scheduled arrival. 5 weekdays observed, 2026-09-12 to 2026-09-19. On time means no more than five minutes early or late.

How RIDEAU is doing

Two different failures hide inside one on-time percentage, and they have opposite fixes. These separate them. Each figure is a share of the route-hours this site measured well enough to speak for, and the count it is out of is shown beside it.

Measured over 24 route-hours. 0 more were observed too thinly to count, and are excluded rather than assumed good.

Scheduling

Whether the timetable describes the trip that is actually made. A route late by the same amount every day is not unreliable, it is mis-scheduled, and every operator is driving a schedule nobody can keep.

Who can fix it
A service planner
What it costs
Cost unavailable until fleet, labour, recovery and transfer effects are tested.

Timetable matches the trip

66.7%

Hours where the middle arrival is within three minutes late and one minute early of the timetable.

Route-hours where the timetable is short

8of 24

Hours where the middle arrival is three minutes late or worse. Each is a candidate for a running-time rewrite.

Route-hours running early

0of 24

Hours where buses typically leave early. Riders who arrive on time can still watch one go.

Running time a short hour needs

3.6min

For a typical short hour, the minutes a planner would add.

Operations: not measurable here

This site records a median delay for each hour at a stop, and no percentile, so the gap between a normal trip and a bad one cannot be worked out. That is a limit of our own measurement, not a finding about this place.

O-Train evidence

What we know about train service here

Open the train observation report

Trains are not in the public data feed

OC Transpo publishes live positions for its buses, and this site measures them: millions of bus arrivals every month, which is where every bus figure on this site comes from. The same public feed carries no train positions, so this site has never recorded a single train arrival. Nothing here can tell you where a train is, or whether Lines 1, 2 and 4 run on time.

This is a gap in what is published, not a gap in the trains. If train positions were published the way bus positions already are, riders would get the same record for rail that they have for every bus route on this site.

Recent shared train observations

These are rider sightings approved by a moderator. They show a reported time and place. They are not official train positions, a complete train count, or proof of a cause.

No approved rider observation matches this place or line in the last 31 days. That does not mean no train ran or no problem occurred.

What is being shown

A current station board assembled from the imported timetable and any usable operator prediction for each trip.

How it was produced

Platforms sharing the station stop code are grouped, scheduled trips are read from the current GTFS, and a live time is used only when the operator publishes a matching prediction.

Evidence dates

Computed or assembled
Sample
40 departures across 6 published platform records in the current four-hour board.
Coverage
30 departures have a published live prediction; 10 are timetable-only.

Sources

Limits to keep in mind

  • OC Transpo does not publish live rail positions or predictions in the feed used here, so rail times are timetable-only.
  • The stop source does not publish a complete station accessibility chain, entrances, or indoor paths.
