Lincoln Fields Station (OC Transpo)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lincoln Fields Station is a station on Ottawa's transitway located at Carling Avenue and the Ottawa River Parkway. It is adjacent but not connected to nearby Lincoln Fields Shopping Centre. It is the main western hub of the transitway system and has a ticket sales and information office as well as a small convenience store. Many express services serving the eastern end of the city use this station as its western terminus, particularly when the next run of that bus starts in the west end. Like Hurdman in the east, the transitway routes branch off in two directions: westward to Kanata and southward to Barrhaven. The western branch of the transitway from this point is currently incomplete, forcing westbound routes to use existing streets such as Carling Avenue and the Queensway.
The station has two distinct platform areas. One platform area serves main transitway route 95 to Baseline station and Barrhaven and route 96 to Bayshore and Kanata along with numerous express routes to the western and southwestern suburbs. A second platform serves local routes and routes that branch off to Carling Avenue, such as the 16, 18, 85 (eastbound only), 97, 151 & 156 or heads to the Southwest Transitway (Routes 86, 111, 151, 152, 156, 172 & 178). Elevated walkways connect the two platforms together and provide street level access from Carling Avenue.
