OC Transpo buses run across Ottawa. Visit their website to plan your trip, find out about what routes are available and more. There are currently two routes that stop at CHEO's main campus: route 5 and route 45. Both busses come regularly throughout the day.

You can also call OC Transpo's information line at 613-741-4390 for schedule details.

Ontario Northland

Ontario Northland offers motor coach transportation from Sault Ste. Marie, Sudbury and North Bay to Ottawa. Passengers now have the option to be dropped off at two OC Transpo bus stops near CHEO and The Ottawa Hospital. Busses arrive at CHEO in the evening, and depart for Sault Ste Marie, Sudbury and North Bay in the morning.

Their motor coaches can accommodate most wheeled mobility devices and many have an elevator platform for passengers with reduced mobility or those in a wheelchair.

For more information including departure times, drop-off spots and more visit the Ontario Northland site.

CHEO's main campus is near most major roads/highways in the National Capital Region. It is approximately a 10-minute drive from downtown Ottawa and a 20-minute drive from the airport. There are children's hospital signs along most major roads that will lead you to CHEO.

You can call a taxi from anywhere in Ottawa and ask to go to CHEO. From downtown Ottawa, a taxi will cost approximately $15 to reach our main campus. When you're leaving 401 Smyth Road, keep an eye out for our taxi phones located by our main entrance as well as at the Garry Cardiff and Max Keeping Wing entrances. These phones directly call a local taxi service for you.
