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. -

South Ottawa Roads, Playgrounds, Pathways, Studies, Real Estate Tapped for 2017 Cash South Ottawa Projects in 2017 Budget
South Ottawa roads, playgrounds, pathways, studies, real estate tapped for 2017 cash South Ottawa projects in 2017 budget Ottawa South News Dec 29, 2016 By Erin McCracken Dozens of projects in Ottawa’s southern wards have been tapped to receive 2017 budget dollars. Here’s a breakdown, ward by ward: Capital Ward Residents who live in or frequent the Billings Bridge and Heron Park neighbourhoods of Capital Ward can count on the addition of a new red light camera at Bank Street and Riverside Drive in the coming months. It’s just one of a number of items for that part of the ward that are included in the city’s 2017 budget. The design of a new pathway will be completed in 2017 to allow users of the Rideau River Eastern Pathway to walk or cycle under the south side of Billings Bridge at Bank Street and Riverside Drive. Construction is scheduled for 2018 and the cost is being shared with the National Capital Commission. “That means people going east-west along that multi-use pathway won’t have to come up and cross Bank Street anymore,” said Capital Coun. David Chernushenko. “It is safer, removes a number of movements, and there will be fewer people for drivers to keep an eye on.” inReadThat will complement plans to begin work on sections of the Rideau River Western Pathway in nearby Old Ottawa South, he said, adding that currently is a patchwork of trails to the University of Ottawa and on to Sandy Hill. Faircrest Heights, Alta Vista, Billings Bridge and Heron Park residents can also look forward to construction beginning on the Rideau Canal footbridge that will link Fifth Avenue in the Glebe with Clegg Street in Old Ottawa East. -
