Contents

This station serves the Riverside South community within an expansive area zoned for commercial and retail purposes. As with the Bayview terminus station, it features a public washroom. With the Line 2 expansion operational, OC Transpo Route 73 and 74 have been extended east from Nepean Woods station and Leikin station along Strandherd and Earl Armstrong, with a stop at Riverview station, before ending at Limebank station. [4] Route 99 has also been shortened with its eastern terminus being moved to Limebank station. Route 99 service east of Limebank station was replaced by Line 2. Route 283 which used to serve Tunney's Pasture now terminates at Limebank station and follows a different alignment between Limebank and Richmond.

As of May 2023, under the City of Ottawa's Transportation Master Plan (TMP), the undeveloped-yet-protected transit corridor linking Limebank station with Riverview station and the park-and-ride to the west is slated to be used for a bus rapid transit (BRT) corridor. Despite this, there were growing local calls to zone this corridor for a future Line 2 LRT extension in the next version TMP, which was due to be published in late 2023 or early 2024.[ citation needed ]
