Ottawa Tourism has welcomed the extension of the city’s light rail transit (LRT) system to Macdonald-Cartier International Airport, offering a convenient and affordable connection for delegates between the city’s international transport hub and downtown Ottawa, Canada.
This expansion marks a significant milestone in Ottawa’s transportation infrastructure, making it easier for international delegates, tourists and business travelers to explore Canada’s capital. The new airport link not only enhances convenience but also reflects Ottawa’s commitment to sustainability, connectivity and accessibility for all visitors. With its direct connection to downtown Ottawa, the LRT extension simplifies travel for international event organizers and attendees, particularly those arriving for conferences and major events hosted at the Shaw Center, Ottawa’s premier conference venue, and other downtown facilities.
In addition to enhancing the visitor experience, the new LRT link supports Ottawa’s growing reputation as a hub for sustainable travel. By providing a convenient and green transit option, this investment underscores the city’s dedication to reducing its carbon footprint and fostering a more connected and vibrant urban environment.
The airport extension aligns with recent investments in Ottawa’s event infrastructure, including the addition of new hotels, venues, and increased international flight routes.
