Summary

The Bank St Transit Action Group has united members to advocate for essential improvements on the two busiest streets in Centretown, which serve vital transportation networks including routes 6 and 7. These streets connect the community to downtown, the Glebe, and areas like Old Ottawa South, Alta Vista, and Carleton University, all requiring enhanced public transit access.

Our core mission is to ensure every transit rider can move smoothly, providing safe, reliable, and efficient services that address long-standing gaps in connectivity. We operate as a collaborative effort to gather rider concerns, organize public meetings to discuss policy changes, and mobilize resources to fix critical infrastructure issues blocking daily commuters.

Currently, we are focusing on fixing Route 6, which serves Centretown, and Route 7, which links the Glebe and downtown. These lines currently face significant delays and overcrowding, making it difficult for locals to commute between work hubs and schools. The group is actively working with City Council members and local transit authorities to negotiate new routes and improve signal timings to reduce wait times.

We also plan to organize upcoming events to raise awareness about current bottlenecks and demonstrate the potential for change through demonstrations and media outreach. Joining our team would allow you to voice your opinions, help shape these important public policies, and directly influence the city's transit landscape.
