Public Works Big Wheels Expo!

  • Ottawa Stadium 300 Coventry Road Ottawa, ON, K1K 4P5 Canada (map)

Come down to the Ottawa Stadium on Sunday, June 2 between 9:30 am and 2 pm to enjoy this FREE event. Some of the vehicles that will be on site include a garbage truck, rock truck, road painting truck, traffic signal display, sidewalk sweeper, snow plow, log truck, and much more.

Please note that the event will open at 9 am for a 30-minute period to offer a sensory-friendly time for those who benefit from lighter crowds.

For those wishing to stay after the event to watch some baseball, there will be an Ottawa Titans game starting at 1 pm. From noon onwards, 100 people will receive free tickets to attend the game.

Bike parking is available and the event can be accessed via transit. To determine the best public transit route for you, please consult the OC Transpo Travel Planner. Parking is also available at Ottawa Stadium for $8 on the app or in person. Cash is not accepted.

Consider a career in Public Works!

This event is also a wonderful opportunity for anyone considering a career in public works to ask questions and learn more. Our highly skilled and specialized public works professionals are responsible for:

  • Maintaining, operating, building, and renewing infrastructure,

  • Improving and protecting our City’s traffic and transportation, water supply, water and solid waste systems,

  • As well as our fleet, public buildings, natural assets, parks, and other structures and facilities.

If you’ve ever wondered how to get involved, this is the perfect opportunity for you! Come have a chat and check out the sidewalk machine and mower, which are the starter pieces of equipment that can lead you all the way to operating a plow or bucket truck.
