Mooney's Bay station

Mooney's Bay is an O-Train station along the Trillium Line located near Heron Road and Bronson Avenue in Ottawa, Ontario, which primarily serves the Government of Canada offices in the Confederation Heights area, and students from Brookfield High School. In 2011, a pedestrian and cyclist path was built to provide a direct link between Mooney's Bay Station and Brookfield Road.

The station was originally named Confederation after the area in which the station is located, Confederation Heights. On December 24, 2017, the station was renamed to Mooney's Bay (after nearby Mooney's Bay Park) to avoid confusion with the O-Train's new Confederation Line, which opened in 2019.[1]

gollark: I've brought my desktop back up again (with a cheap bad GPU) and wow the colors on this monitor look weird.
gollark: That was easier to program, and it's just text drawn onto the screen corner.
gollark: Also, it can still only handle one overly at once. I should rewrite it and make it do Chorus City street signs again.
