Financial Implications There are no financial implications regarding this addendum. Public Consultation/Input Consultation following the October tabling included four Public Information Sessions (PIC) and several stakeholder and advisory committee meetings, as described in the Consultation section of this report. All PIC information was available on Ottawa.ca and additional feedback was received via emails and through online submissions. Table 1 lists the recommended changes based on the consultation. RÉSUMÉ Hypothèses et analyse Le présent addenda au rapport conjoint du personnel du Comité des transports et de la Commission du transport en commun daté du 9 octobre 2013 (ACS2013-PAI-PGM- 0193) résume les commentaires formulés pendant les consultations et les changements proposés à la suite du dépôt et de la publication de la version provisoire du Plan directeur des transports (PDT) 2013, du Plan de la circulation piétonne d’Ottawa (PCPO) et du Plan sur le cyclisme d’Ottawa (PCO). Répercussions financières Le présent addenda n’a pas de répercussions financières. Consultation/commentaires du public La consultation qui a eu lieu après le dépôt du rapport en octobre comprenait quatre séances d’information publiques (SIP) et plusieurs réunions d’intervenants et de comités consultatifs, tel que décrit dans la section Consultation du présent rapport. Toutes les informations relatives aux SIP étaient disponibles sur ottawa.ca; d’autres commentaires ont été fournis par l’intermédiaire de courriels et de présentations en ligne. Le tableau 1 dresse la liste les changements recommandés à la suite de la consultation. BACKGROUND The updated TMP, OPP and OCP were tabled at a joint Transportation Committee and Transit Commission meeting on October 9, 2013. Several public consultation events 3 subsequently followed and staff were directed to report back with the results of these consultations for the Transportation Committee meeting of November 15, 2013. DISCUSSION The following summarizes the main concerns and issues identified through the October consultation processes. Recommended changes to the plans based on the consultation feedback are listed below in Table 1. Accessibility Staff highlighted the accessibility components of the TMP, OPP and OCP to the Accessibility Advisory Committee (AAC) on October 21, 2013. Feedback from the AAC included a desire for greater emphasis on accessibility, particularly Para Transpo services. Many AAC comments also pertained to the operations and maintenance of existing facilities, such as snow removal and sidewalk repair. While important considerations, both of these issues are more appropriately dealt with through the annual operations planning process. The TMP includes supporting principles to meet mobility needs of all residents through providing “integrated multi-modal and barrier-free transportation facilities and services.” The City also adheres to provincial legislation such as the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act. Staff acknowledge the benefits of additional content with respect to Para Transpo and recommend adding an additional section to Chapter 4 of the TMP with respect to accessibility for transit customers with disabilities, as outlined in Table 1. Specifically, this new section indicates that the City will meet and exceed municipal, provincial and federal guidelines and legislation for people with disabilities. Modifications are also proposed for the OCP to indicate that the AAC shall be provided with opportunities to review technical design standards involving cycling facilities, as shown in Table 1. Complete Street Policies Section 7.1 of the draft TMP outlines the context and actions to design and build complete streets. While several comments were received that support the inclusion of this new content in the TMP, some suggest it should be more detailed and specific. The Ottawa Board of Health at its October 21, 2013 meeting directed Ottawa Public Health and Planning and Growth Management staff “to review the 10 key elements of a comprehensive complete streets policy that are promoted by Complete Streets for Canada as they relate to the Draft Transportation Master Plan, the Draft Cycling Plan and the Draft Pedestrian Plan (ACS2013-OPH-HPDP-0007).” This review has taken place which resulted in some minor text changes to Section 7.1 of the TMP, as shown in Table 1. It should be noted that there are already many examples of the elements integrated throughout the TMP, OPP and OCP. For example, all new roads and road widenings in 4 the TMP include provisions for walking and cycling, the plans aim to improve connectivity through comprehensive and interconnected networks, and performance monitoring includes measurable outcomes. In addition, Action 7-2 in the TMP directs staff to “update road design guidelines, standards and processes to reflect complete street principles.” Rail Service to the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport Several comments were received suggesting the O-Train should be extended to the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport (OMCIA). It is important to note that the TMP recommends extending Light Rail Transit (LRT) to the Airport in the long-term, likely post-2031 or sooner if funding becomes available. In the meantime, an 8 km extension of the O-Train is recommended to Bowesville Road with additional new stations at Leitrim, South Keys, Walkley, and Gladstone. Many options for extending the O-Train were examined collaboratively with the Airport Authority, details of which are included in the October 9 staff report (TMP Rapid Transit and Transit Priority Development Report). The analysis concluded that an extension of the O-Train to Bowesville without a spur line to the Airport provides the best value when considering ridership and costs. An O-Train extension to Bowesville is expected to result in approximately 2,700 riders in the peak periods between Bowesville and South Keys stations while, in comparison, approximately 400 airport passengers and employees would be served in the peak periods with an O-Train extension to the Airport. The analysis documented for the TMP followed Council’s direction to develop a rapid transit strategy between Bayview and Barrhaven Town Centre (ACS2012-ICS- TRA-0003) and concluded that the option to extend the O-Train to the Airport and provide Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) service to Barrhaven would result in similar ridership gains as extending the O-Train to Bowesville with a BRT service to Barrhaven but would require approximately $123 million in additional capital costs. Additional important factors considered include the layout of the airport runways, terminal buildings, and infrastructure that prevent the O-Train from getting closer than 400 metres of the main Airport terminal building. A spur line to the Airport would also require every second or third train to go to the Airport and would result in a decrease of O-Train service to every 18 or 27 minutes south of South Keys Station. This would be a significant decrease in service compared to the existing Transitway Route 97 which already provides 10-minute service directly to the main Airport terminal building. Rapid Transit within the Fernbank Community The Fernbank community is located between Kanata South and Stittsville and bounded by Hazeldean and Fernbank Roads. The Community Design Plan for the Fernbank area calls for 9,700 to 11,000 dwelling units and approximately 2,500 to 2,600 jobs. Comments were received regarding the deferral of the planned BRT corridor along the North-South Arterial through

RECOMMANDATIONS DU RAPPORT Que le Comité des Transports prenne connaissance de ce rapport. BACKGROUND The purpose of this study undertaken in partnership with the National Capital Commission (NCC) was to identify projects within the Transportation Master Plan (TMP) and other transportation projects that have emerged since the completion of the TMP that could have an impact on the environmental integrity of the federal Greenbelt lands. By examining the cumulative effects of the construction of this infrastructure on the Greenbelt lands, a framework now has been established to ensure that the associated Environmental Assessments (EAs) that require federal approval will move forward more expediently. 2 One of the NCC’s mandates is to protect the Greenbelt. Current practice has been that the NCC only comments or provides input on projects that are identified in its Greenbelt Master Plan (GBMP).
