Route

Route 4 begins its route at Hurdman Station and travels along the South-East Transitway until it reaches Billings Bridge Station. Making its way from Billings Bridge Station, it travels via Bronson Avenue (with a small detour to serve Carleton University) until buses reach Albert Street (westbound) and Slater Street (eastbound). Route 4 travels via Albert and Slater until reaching Bay Street (eastbound) or Lyon Street (westbound). Buses then use Queen Street, Elgin Street, and Rideau Street to reach the Rideau Centre.[1]

Buses

Route 4 uses both Orion VII diesel-electric hybrid buses and New Flyer D40i Invero buses (both 40 foot models), with occasional trips served by New Flyer D60LFR 60 foot articulated buses.
