Ottawa’s beleaguered light-rail transit system remains shut down for a third day after it was abruptly halted during rush hour earlier this week, causing ongoing disruptions to all who use it.

The city’s public transit provider, OC Transpo, announced Monday evening that service was shut down due to an issue with the train’s axle bearing.
