Leiper’s Bold Transit Plan for Ottawa | Ottawa News

Published 3 weeks, 5 days ago
Description

Jeff Leiper’s bold transit plan promises to reverse bus cuts, boost frequency, and restore rider representation—backed by a long-term fleet strategy. While he won’t promise fare drops, he insists service must come first. The union remains cautious but open to support if his platform delivers real wins. With demand surging as offices and students return, Leiper questions if current infrastructure can handle the load—and is eyeing Metrolinx deals. After years on council fighting cuts, he says a mayoral win gives him the power to fix Ottawa’s broken transit system once and for all.
