"The Transit Committee is responsible for ensuring the development of a safe, efficient, accessible and client-focused transit system and for providing overall guidance and direction to the Transit Services Department on all issues relating to the operation of public transit, including conventional bus service, the O-Train and Para Transpo." - City of Ottawa
As public transit has enormous potential for supporting environmental protection—including the reduction of car use and greenhouse gas emissions, building more livable cities, and the encouragement of active transportation—this committee is key to assisting Ottawa on its green journey.
