  • Pathway Network for Canada's Capital Region 2006 Strategic Plan PLANI
    Pathway Network for Canada’s Capital Region 2006 Strategic Plan PLANI-CITÉ i June 2006 Pathway Network for Canada’s Capital Region 2006 Strategic Plan THE VISION The National Capital Commission (NCC) and its partners propose the following as a framework for the planning and development of the Capital Pathway network for the next 10 years: Multi-purpose use The Capital Pathway network covers Canada’s Capital Region in its entirety. It is a multi-purpose recreational and tourist network, which also supports non-motorized commuting vocations. Accessibility and safety The network extends to and links natural and built areas. Through its layout and design standards, the network encourages a quality user experience and accessibility, emphasizing the recognition of the “Green Capital”, and highlighting symbolic points of interest within the Capital. The network provides access to waterways, green spaces, cultural and heritage features while supporting the protection of natural areas and offering a wide range of easily accessible services. User education and awareness programs targeting pathway sharing in a respectful and tolerant manner result in a safe and pleasant experience. Connectivity The network, through its linkage with local cycling routes and regional/national trails, is connected to other non-motorized transportation networks within the region to encourage sustainable transportation and forms a key component of Canada’s Capital recreational and cycling experience. Recognition The network, as a result of its multi use vocation, its extensive and far reaching system of pathways and connection with regional, provincial and national trails and pathways within and outside Canada’s Capital Region as well as the quality of the experience is regarded as one of North America’s best.

  • The Plan for Canada's Capital
    Judicial i This page is intentionally left blank for printing purposes. ii The Plan for Canada’s Capital 2017 to 2067 NATIONAL CAPITAL COMMISSION June 2016 iii The Capital of an extensive country, rapidly growing in population and wealth, possessed of almost unlimited water power for manufacturing purposes, and with a location admirably adapted not only for the building of a great city, but a city of unusual beauty and attractiveness. (…) Not only is Ottawa sure to become the centre of a large and populous district, but the fact that it is the Capital of an immense country whose future greatness is only beginning to unfold, (…) and that it be a city which will reflect the character of the nation, and the dignity, stability, and good taste of its citizens. Frederick Todd, 1903 “Preliminary Report to the Ottawa Improvement Commission” pp.1-2 iv EXECUTIVE SUMMARY For more than a century, the National Capital Commission (NCC) and its predecessors have embraced urban planning to promote the development, conservation and improvement of the National Capital Region, with the aim of ensuring that the nature and character of the seat of the Government of Canada is in accordance with its national significance. The consequences of these planning efforts have been the creation of parks and open spaces, public shorelines, campuses and clusters of government institutions, monuments and symbolic boulevards. This plan charts the future of federal lands in the National Capital Region between Canada’s sesquicentennial in 2017 and its bicentennial in 2067. It will shape the use of federal lands, buildings, parks, infrastructure and symbolic spaces to fulfill the vision of Canada’s Capital as a symbol of our country’s history, diversity and democratic values, in a dynamic and sustainable manner.

We started producing the report in 2012 in order to provide a more complete picture of what is going in Otta- wa in terms of cycling infrastructure, policy, and statistics. There are many different jurisdictions in Ottawa and, not surprisingly, there continues to be a need to gather information about the diversity of develop- ments involving cycling. Citizens for Safe Cycling (CfSC) is primarily focused on the activities of the City, fol- lowed by those of the National Capital Commission (NCC). We also aim to cover those efforts undertaken by the ministries of the Province of Ontario and the Federal Government. Ottawa Public Health, the Ottawa Police Service and Safer Roads Ottawa (City of Ottawa) also play a role in educating the public about cycling and cycling safety. Finally, Ottawa’s school boards and universities, OC Transpo, building owners, and retail- ers, etc. all of have an interest in how cycling develops in our city. This year, CfSC was involved in the Provincial Cycling Strategy. We are happy to read that Transportation Minister Glenn Murray is now taking serious steps to make Ontario's roads safer for cyclists by introducing Bill 173. The bill proposes a number of changes such as the one metre rule, traffic lights for cyclists with the bike symbol, crossrides along crosswalks and counterflow lanes.

  • Instructions for Authors of the IASSIST Quarterly
    Cycling infrastructure in the Ottawa-Gatineau area: a complex assemblage of data Sylvie Lafortune1, Joël Rivard2 Abstract The Ottawa-Gatineau National Capital Region (Canada) has a well developed and well used cycling network of over 1,000 km which spans both sides of the Ontario and Quebec provincial boundary. The purpose of this study is to map out the complex data landscape behind the cycling infrastructure in the National Capital Region (NCR), which is largely based on inter-jurisdictional cooperation and partnerships with cycling advocacy groups. The questions we try to answer are: What data are collected for cycling infrastructure and activities? Who are the data producers and stakeholders? What are the relationships amongst the various data producers and stakeholders? The study reveals that the complexity of the cycling data landscape in the NCR is due to the complexity of the relationships between the various data producers and stakeholders. Keywords Cycling infrastructure data, cycling advocacy, cycling data stakeholders, cycling data producers, National Capital Region (Canada), active transportation data Introduction This article is based on the results of an exploratory study conducted in 2017-2018 and presented as a poster at the IASSIST 2018 conference in Montreal, Canada. The theme of the conference was ‘Once upon a data point: sustaining our data storytellers’ and it provided us with a great opportunity to explore the data story behind the cycling infrastructure in Ottawa, Canada’s capital city. We felt that our topic was particularly timely as we had noticed a heightened interest in active transportation research over a number of years. This became apparent with an increase in requests for cycling data which, we might add, are frequently difficult to obtain.

  • Lebreton Flats Preliminary Master Concept Plan
    LeBreton Flats MASTER CONCEPT PLAN LeBreton Flats Master Concept Plan January, 2020 ii | LeBreton Flats Master Concept Plan Foreword I’m very pleased to present the preliminary Master Concept Plan for the redevelopment of LeBreton Flats. This plan will guide the development of the site as the National Capital Commission (NCC) begins the project’s implementation. If I had to distill the plan’s seven guiding principles to articulate what our planning team has achieved, I would focus on three crucial objectives. First, we aspire to the creation of inspiring, Capital-building attractions and activities that capture the imagination of residents of the Capital and the millions who visit us every year. Second, these attractions and activities will complement a vibrant, liveable, mixed-use community that includes diverse housing in all dimensions (type, size, affordability), that is a showcase of sustainability in terms of its low-carbon footprint and focus on active mobility, and that demonstrates design excellence. And third, the site will be enriched by fantastic, open, public green spaces that act both as destinations in their own right and as connections between elements of the site and the waterways in and around it, such as the Ottawa River and the aqueducts. I’d like to acknowledge the incredible effort the NCC’s Building LeBreton team has made on this project in a short period of time. The NCC has moved expeditiously to develop the new Master Concept Plan, and it is thanks to the hard work of our staff, the cooperation of our partners, and the contribution of thousands of citizens who participated in our public engagement and consultations that we are able to present this plan.
