A woman was pulled to safety late Wednesday afternoon after she fell onto the LRT tracks at Rideau Station.
The incident on the westbound tracks happened at around 5:30 p.m.
She was rescued with the help of passengers and one of the “O-Train Ambassadors,” the red-vested workers who've been helping people navigate the light rail system, according to Troy Charter, director of transit operations for the City of Ottawa.
Witnesses said a train pulled up about a minute later.
There have been no reported delays to LRT service.
