Ottawa South Column – December 17, 2015
City Councillor (River Ward) 613-580-2486 [email protected] Ottawa South Column – December 17, 2015 Major Changes to OC Transpo Routes Starting Sunday, December 20, the next phase of OC Transpo service adjustments to accommodate O-Train Confederation Line construction will take effect. These service adjustments require the closure of the Transitway between Lees and Hurdman stations. Additional adjustments will start Sunday, January 17, and will require the closure of the Transitway between Empress Avenue and Merton Street (Scott St will be used). Some River Ward customers will have longer travel times and may see changes at stations and with connections. Hurdman Station will no longer be served by Routes 95, 114, 192, 401 and 602, but new Route 104 will maintain connections from the east end. Stops in the station will be adjusted, which may affect where customers catch their bus. South end rush hour routes will be shortened - Route 40 ends in Gatineau, instead of LeBreton, while Routes 41 and 43 end at Hurdman Station. New Route 104 will offer a direct connection between Orléans, Hurdman, Billings Bridge and Carleton University, seven days a week, with 24-hour service between Hurdman and Blair stations. For more information about O-Train Confederation Line construction, visit ontrack2018.ca. Seasonal schedule adjustments will also go into effect Sunday, December 20. New timetables are available in print and online at octranspo.com. Police Budget to Address Speeding I have been the most outspoken member of City Council when it comes to addressing the chronic issue of speeding in our community. -

Exploring Bus Rapid Transit a Comparison of York Region And
Exploring Bus Rapid Transit A Comparison of York Region and Ottawa’s BRT Systems A Master’s Report By Laura Moebs A Report submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Urban and Regional Planning School of Urban and Regional Planning Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario April 2011 Acknowledgements I would firstly like to thank my supervisor, Preston Schiller. His encouragement and insight has been extremely valuable and I appreciate all the time he put in to review and edit my work. I am grateful for all of his help and contribution to this report. I would like to thank my parents for all of their support. They have provided me with so many opportunities and I am forever grateful to them. Finally, I would like to thank York Region Transit and OC Transpo for all of their help. To everyone who helped answer my questions and provided me with valuable information, I appreciate your kindness and patience. Executive Summary Background Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is an alternative mode of public transportation that is often considered superior to the conventional bus system. The purpose of this report is to compare a newly established BRT system (VIVA) to a well-established BRT system (OC Transpo), to examine the strengths of BRT, establish how BRT systems can learn from one another, and determine how to improve current systems to become more attractive to potential riders. This report seeks to answer three related research questions: 1. How does York Region’s BRT system compare to Ottawa’s BRT system? 2. -
