All environmental permits have been secured and Mattamy will be proceeding in conformance with those approvals. Maintenance on Tuesday includes removing small vegetation, cutting the grass and removing the water. After which, the work will include removing existing structures, earthmoving and stone installation. Please note that the area is an active construction zone and for safety purposes it should not be accessed by the public. The process is anticipated to proceed through September and I will be certain to keep residents updated through my weekly electronic newsletter. Hydro Work on Granite Ridge Continues Following upgrade projects in Granite Ridge last fall, Hydro Ottawa has advised me that Phase 2 of the project will be beginning soon. Phase 2 involves the installation of a new concrete encased duct bank and manholes, as well as new high voltage cables. The work involves open cut civil construction along the west side of Granite Ridge. Traffic/pedestrian control will be implemented to ensure that roads and driveways remain accessible and safe to residents and staff. To minimize noise concerns, work will be completed between 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM Work will begin in Mid-July and any work in front of the school will be complete before the start of the school year. Residents of the directly affected areas should be receiving an information sheet in their mailboxes this week. If you require additional information please contact my office and you may also contact Bruce Bain at Hydro Ottawa at [email protected] or 613 738-5499x 7285. Road Resurfacing Projects in Ottawa Keeping You Informed Page 3 I would like to provide residents with an update on the 2017 Road Resurfacing Program and on the additional resurfacing projects in response to the motion carried by Council on May 24, 2017. This motion approved the addition of $400,000 to the Road Services Operating Budget for the Unscheduled Asphalt Road and Pathway Surface Repairs program and a further $2.5M to the City- wide Road Resurfacing Project. Over the past four weeks, staff from Public Works and Environmental Services (PWES) and Infrastructure Services (IS) have worked collaboratively to identify locations for the implementation of additional roadway repairs. To maximize the value of the additional investments, the focus of these additional repairs has been on selected road sections of greater need and not the resurfacing of full road segments. It is recognized that the additional investments could be allocated to many locations. In developing the list, staff considered the following factors: Current road conditions – based on information gathered by field staff; Existing capital projects – coordination with proximity to planned projects and consideration of works that have been advanced to 2017 Planned resurfacing – coordination with work planned in 2018 to maximize the return on the additional investments; Safety risks – based on traffic volumes and speeds Stakeholder input – Councillor and resident feedback. I have discussed this item with PWES and IS staff and based on feedback from residents provided to my office, assisted in determining the Stittsville locations funded for resurfacing would be: Abbott St at Stittsville Main Carp Rd at McCooye Hobin St at Renshaw I am pleased that this additional funding is being used to help allocate repairs to more areas of Stittsville and across the City which are in need. My office is aware of other areas that still require maintenance work and I will continue to bring them to the attention of PWES and IS staff to ensure that they are added to the maintenance list as early as possible. The timeline to implement the additional repairs will vary depending on type of repair needed, procurement of services and coordination of resources. All works are expected to be completed later in 2017. Page 4 Keeping You Informed For a full list of roads affected by the additional funding, please click here or see below. Please note that the list is based on staff’s best estimate of costs and the list may need to be adjusted based on actual costs when contractors have been retained. Canada Day Activities This Weekend in Ottawa With July 1st around the corner, I would like to share that the City of Ottawa has created a portal on ottawa.ca where residents may find substantial information pertaining to Canada Day. The page includes traffic impacts, security information, details on community events and more.

  • Appendix 5 Station Descriptions And
    Appendix 5 Station Descriptions and Technical Overview Stage 2 light rail transit (LRT) stations will follow the same standards, design principles, and connectivity and mobility requirements as Stage 1 Confederation Line. Proponent Teams were instructed, through the guidelines outlined in the Project Agreement (PA), to design stations that will integrate with Stage 1, which include customer facilities, accessibility features, and the ability to support the City’s Transportation Master Plan (TMP) goals for public transit and ridership growth. The station features planned for the Stage 2 LRT Project will be designed and built on these performance standards which include: Barrier-free path of travel to entrances of stations; Accessible fare gates at each entrance, providing easy access for customers using mobility devices or service animals; Tactile wayfinding tiles will trace the accessible route through the fare gates, to elevators, platforms and exits; Transecure waiting areas on the train platform will include accessible benches and tactile/Braille signs indicating the direction of service; Tactile warning strips and inter-car barriers to keep everyone safely away from the platform edge; Audio announcements and visual displays for waiting passengers will precede each train’s arrival on the platform and will describe the direction of travel; Service alerts will be shown visually on the passenger information display monitors and announced audibly on the public-address system; All wayfinding and safety signage will be provided following the applicable accessibility standards (including type size, tactile signage, and appropriate colour contrast); Clear, open sight lines and pedestrian design that make wayfinding simple and intuitive; and, Cycling facilities at all stations including shelter for 80 per cent of the provided spaces, with additional space protected to ensure cycling facilities can be doubled and integrated into the station’s footprint.
