Ottawa residents who live at or below the poverty line may soon qualify for cheaper rides on OC Transpo.
A proposed new low-income pass would offer eligible riders a deep discount on the monthly adult general pass if they live at or below Statistics Canada’s low-income cut-off of approximately $20,000 or less a year for individuals, or an annual income of $38,000 for a family of four.
