Opening Line 5 in phases allowed passengers to benefit from rapid transit along Eglinton Avenue, while the TTC and Metrolinx fine-tuned operations in live-service conditions to deliver consistent and dependable service.
Phased openings for new LRT lines were a key recommendation in the 2022 final report of the public inquiry into the Ottawa LRT launch. The TTC also used this phased approach for Line 6 Finch West.
