Some proposed changes

 * Information to be added: Station Design

The design architect of the above-ground stations, Ritchard Brisbin of bbb architects Ottawa Inc., conceived the project not as a series of stations, but as a continuous civic building with entrances and forecourts in the various communities the Confederation Line serves. Based on modules to optimize fabrication and constructability, the stations use the same architectural language. This allowed standardization for scale of purchase, as well as enabling the system’s brand.

Holistic line of sight orientation and wayfinding considerations are central to the stations design. For instance, the folding patterns in the station roofs, which rise and open at station entrances, were planned to lead riders in the direction of the train platforms. Each of the stations is equipped with a translucent “lantern” element that displays the station name and holds fare vending machines.

 * 1) The way in which the station is being described is based on interviews with the station's architect, yet the requested prose uses Wikipedia's voice to make these claims. These claims, when made by the station's architect, need to be phrased as coming from that source, rather than Wikipedia.
 * 2) The requested prose uses terms which are not Wikilinked (e.g., "architectural language", "sight orientation" and "wayfinding considerations"). Having these terms Wikilinked will assist the reader in comprehension of the article's text.
 * 3) The COI editor is reminded that if they receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution they make, they must disclose their employer, client, and affiliation to comply with Wikipedia's terms of use and the policy on paid editing.

Stage 2 West - Future services
I was wondering when the stage 2 west stations would get the future services/preceding & following station template like the stage 2 east stations. I would have done it but it's quite confusing. I hope someone else can create it with their free time and I can continue it from there if needed. Thank you CanadianBrick1 (talk) 04:23, 10 November 2022 (UTC)


 * I can update Module:Adjacent stations/OC Transpo sometime this weekend. BLAIXX 00:46, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much CanadianBrick1 (talk) 14:15, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Done. Keep in mind that once the western extension opens c. 2026, the branches will be named Line 1 and Line 3. See Tunney's Pasture station for what I've done. BL<b style="color: #0096FF">A</b>IXX 21:53, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
