Carried COMMUNITY COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: On January 21, 2003, Community Committee referred the matter to the Administration to report back on the feasibility of reducing the speed limit on Dugald Road eastbound as it approaches Plessis Road. 2 TO: Ms Inga Skundberg, Clerk FROM: Andrew Chimko, P. Eng. East Kildonan-Transcona Traffic Management Engineer Community Committee 2nd Floor- 100 Main Street FILE NO. E-12 REF: DOCUMENT11 DATE: 2003 04 11 RE: SPEED LIMIT ON DUGALD ROAD At the January 21, 2003 meeting, the East Kildonan-Transcona Community Committee requested the Administration to report on the feasibility of decreasing the speed limit on Dugald Road in the area adjacent to the residential frontage west of Plessis Road. History: In a letter dated February 21, 2001, addressed to Mr. John B. Barton of Anola, Manitoba, and copied to Honourable Premier Gary Doer and Mr. Kenn Rosin, P.Eng., Manager of Transportation, Honourable Steve Ashton, the then Minister of Transportation and Government Services, advised that in an attempt to enhance traffic safety on P.T.H. #15 (Dugald Road) in proximity to the Red River Floodway Bridge and P.T.H. #100 (the East Perimeter Highway), he has asked his Departmental staff, in conjunction with City oficials, to review the speed limit on Dugald Road in this area, including the area immediately to the west which is contained within the jurisdictional limits of The City of Winnipeg. In a report to the Standing Policy Committee on Public Works dated July 30, 2001, the Public Works Department sought authority to apply to The Highway Traffic Board of Manitoba, being the legislative body that determines the speed limit on all streets and highways in Manitoba, including in the City of Winnipeg, to: a) decrease the speed limit on Dugald Road between a point 100 metres east of McFadden Avenue and a point 250 west of the East Perimeter Highway from 90 km/h to 80 km/h. b) increase the speed limit on Dugald Road between Lagimodiere Boulevard and a point 100 metres east of McFadden Avenue from 70 km/h to 80 km/h. Such a recommendation was premised on the following information: 3 Although the point at which Dugald Road intersects the East Perimeter Highway is within the City limits, the section of Dugald Road east of a point 250 metres west of the east Perimeter Highway is within the administrative jurisdiction of Manitoba Transportation and Government Services. Just prior to the completion and opening of the northeastern leg of the Perimeter Highway in the fall of 1996, Manitoba Transportation and Government Services signalized Dugald Road at the east Perimeter Highway. In conjunction with the signalization of this intersection, a median divider was constructed on Dugald Road at its intersection with the East Perimeter Highway, and a 70 km/h speed limit was established on Dugald Road from a point 250 metres east of the East Perimeter Highway to a point 250 metres west of the East Perimeter Highway. Dugald Road is a Regional Street, a Full-Time Truck Route, a Bus Route and a Snow Route. It contains a 4 lane divided highway within a rural cross-section between Lagimodiere Boulevard and Plessis Road and a 2 lane highway within a rural cross-section between Plessis Road and the East Perimeter Highway. In a typical 24-hour weekday, Dugald Road carries 22,130 vehicles between Lagimodiere Boulevard and Plessis Road and 10,860 vehicles between Plessis Road and the East Perimeter Highway. There are no sidewalks on Dugald Road. The speed limit on Dugald Road at the time was: 1) 70 km/h between Lagimodiere Boulevard and a point 100 metres east of McFadden Avenue (a distance of 5.40 kilometres); 2) 90 km/h between a point 100 metres east of McFadden Avenue and a point 250 metres west of the East Perimeter Highway (a distance of 2.55 kilometres); 3) 70 km/h between a point 250 metres west of the East Perimeter Highway and a point 250 metres east of the East Perimeter Highway (a distance of 0.50 kilometres and within the jurisdiction of Manitoba Transportation and Government Services); 4) 90 km/h between a point 250 metres east of the East Perimeter Highway and a point 300 metres east of Provincial Road # 207 (a distance of 1.71 kilometres and within the jurisdiction of Manitoba Transportation and Government Services); and 5) 100 km/h east of a point 300 metres east of Provincial Road # 207 (within the jurisdiction of Manitoba Transportation and Government Services). Speed limits should generally be established on the basis of the 85th percentile speed, being the speed above which 15% of motorists operate their vehicle, provided that the collision rate is within acceptable limits. Such a criterion recognizes that the majority of motorists operate their vehicle in a reasonable and prudent manner with due consideration for conditions encountered, including activity into and out of intersecting public streets and private approaches as well as the presence of children and bicyclists on or near the roadway. It is not desirable to establish a number of different speed limits within short travel distances, particularly if the speed limit increases and decreases, as opposed to progressively increasing or progressively decreasing. 4 Radar speed studies undertaken in 2001 on Dugald Road produced the following results: - east of Lagimodiere Boulevard 80 km/h - at Bournais Drive/Beghin Avenue 80 km/h - west of Plessis Road 79 km/h - east of Plessis Road 77 km/h - west of Symington Road 77 km/h - at McFadden Avenue 80 km/h - east of Murdoch Road 91 km/h - west of Ravenhurst Street 94 km/h - at Ravenhurst Street 85 km/h - east of Ravenhurst Street 80 km/h - at East Perimeter Highway 82 km/h - west end of Red River Floodway 90 km/h - east end of Red River Floodway 95 km/h - between Red River Floodway and P.R. #207 102 km/h - at P.R. #207 99 km/h In 2000, the collision rate recorded on Dugald Road between Lagimodiere Boulevard and the East Perimeter Highway was: - 2.0 collisions per million kilometres of travel between Lagimodiere Boulevard and Plessis Road (by comparison, in 1997, there was an average of 1.8 collisions per million kilometres of vehicular travel reported on all rural 4 lane divided Regional Streets). - 1.0 collisions per million kilometres of vehicular travel between Plessis Road and the East Perimeter Highway (by comparison, in 1997, there was an average of 2.1 collisions per million kilometres of vehicular travel reported on all 2 lane rural Regional Streets). These data indicated that it is reasonable to establish a uniform speed limit of 80 km/h on Dugald Road between Lagimodiere Boulevard and a point 250 metres west of the East Perimeter Highway. Manitoba Transportation and Government Services supported the following speed limit changes on the portion of Dugald Road that is within their administrative jurisdiction: (a) an increase from 70 km/h to 80 km/h between a point 250 metres west of the East Perimeter Highway and a point 250 metres east of the East Perimeter Highway; (b) a decrease from 90 km/h to 80 km/h between a point 250 metres east of the East Perimeter Highway and a point 100 metres east of the east limit of the Red River Floodway Bridge; (c) an increase from 90 km/h to 100 km/h between a point 100 metres east of the east limit of the Red River Floodway Bridge and a point 300 metres east of Provincial Road No. 207. 5 If the Standing Policy Committee on Public Works were to be agreeable to the recommended speed limit changes on that portion of Dugald Road that is contained within the jurisdictional limits of The City of Winnipeg, it was the intent of Manitoba Transportation and Government Services to jointly, with The City of Winnipeg, apply to The Highway Traffic Board for approval of the speed limit changes as recommended herein. Implementation of the speed limit changes on Dugald Road as recommended and as proposed by Manitoba Transportation and Government Services would result in a uniform 80 km/h speed limit between Lagimodiere Boulevard and a point 100 metres east of the east limit of the Red River Floodway Bridge, and 100 km/h east thereof. Disposition of the Recommended Speed Limit Change: At their meeting on October 2, 2001, the Standing Policy Committee on Public Works considered the Public Works Department report dated July 30, 2001. The Committee authorized the Public Works Department to apply to The Highway Traffic Board to decrease the speed limit on Dugald Road between a point 100 metres east of McFadden Avenue and a point 250 metres west of the East Perimeter Highway from 90 km/h to 80 km/h. The Committee did not concur in the Administration’s recommendation to apply to The Board to increase the speed limit on Dugald Road between Lagimodiere Boulevard and a point 100 metres east of McFadden Avenue from 70 km/h to 80 km/h.

    PHASE 2 Technical Memorandum for Red and Assiniboine Ammonia Criteria Study From: S. Davies Task Leader, Fish Habitat Workstream To: City of Winnipeg Project Management Committee Study Team Members Subject: Fish Habitat Technical Memorandum # FH 03 Title: WATER CHEMISTRY DATA TO CHARACTERIZE FISH HABITAT IN THE RED AND ASSINIBOINE RIVERS Prepared by: S. Davies and J. Toews January, 2000 City of Winnipeg Ammonia Criteria Study Fish Habitat - Water Chemistry Data Draft - January, 2000 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This memorandum is one of a series of three memoranda that have been produced to describe fish habitat in the Red and Assiniboine rivers within the City of Winnipeg Ammonia Criteria Study Area. This document describes the water chemistry component of fish habitat, while two other memoranda describe the physical attributes and benthic invertebrate community. Data from all three memoranda will be used to explain fish distributions within the Study Area. The objective of this study was to document the water chemistry of those portions of the Red and Assiniboine rivers within the Study Area. The focus of the study was to provide information to describe regional (zone) differences in habitats (macrohabitats) to contribute to explaining potential regional differences in fish distributions. Three surveys were conducted to describe water chemistry in the Red and Assiniboine rivers. The first sampling period took place during February - March, 1999, the second during July, 1999, and the third during September, 1999. A water chemistry sampling program was developed using the segments previously designated by the physical habitat surveys. The Red and Assiniboine rivers had been divided into five major zones, which were divided further into 86 and 30 segments, respectively.

  • Two Floods, a Wildfire, and a Hurricane: the Role of the Canadian Armed Forces in Emergency Management
    Two Floods, a Wildfire, and a Hurricane: The Role of the Canadian Armed Forces in Emergency Management by Johanu Botha A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2018 Johanu Botha THE ROLE OF THE CANADIAN ARMED FORCES IN EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ABSTRACT The role of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) during domestic disaster response has increased significantly over the last century due to the military’s response capacity and the increased frequency and impact of natural hazards. However, there has been no systematic academic assessment of how effectively CAF is integrated into the civilian emergency management system, particularly during the response phase. Using archival analysis and interviews with senior CAF officers and civilian officials, this study fills that gap with an examination of four of Canada’s worst and most recent natural disasters: Hurricane Igor (2010), the Assiniboine River flood (2011), the Alberta multi-river floods (2013), and the Saskatchewan wildfires (2015). Each event was analyzed to assess the effectiveness of CAF-civilian response across different hazards, provincial jurisdictions, and CAF Joint Task Forces. The analysis is broken down into descriptive, evaluative, and normative concepts to assess the presence and quality of, and barriers to, interorganizational collaboration throughout each response. The presence of interorganizational collaboration was high across all events while the quality of such collaboration was moderately high with room for improvement. Barriers to interorganizational collaboration were low, although conceptual differences on the scope of the formal Request for Assistance and the value of defining ‘disaster end states’ did adversely affect collaboration between military and civilian organizations.

  • Red River Floodway Operation Report Spring 2019
    RED RIVER FLOODWAY OPERATION REPORT SPRING 2019 June 28, 2019 Manitoba Infrastructure Hydrologic Forecasting and Water Management Branch Water Management and Structures Division Printed on Recycled Paper EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 2019 Red River spring flood resulted from above normal to well above normal winter snow fall in the upper Red River basin, including significant late season snowfall in the Fargo area, combined with normal soil moisture going into freeze-up in the fall. The March Outlook published by Manitoba’s Hydrologic Forecast Center estimated that the peak flow at Emerson could exceed the flow seen in the 2011 flood under favorable conditions, and exceed the 2009 flood under normal conditions. Under unfavorable conditions, the 2019 flow at Emerson was forecast to be second only to 1997 in the last 60 years of records. The observed peak at Emerson for the 2019 spring flood was approximately 60,700 cfs (1720.0 m3/s), and occurred on April 25. This is similar to the peak flow observed at Emerson in 2010. The 2019 peak flow measured at Emerson equated to a 1:15 year flood. However, due to the small contributions of tributaries in the lower portion of the basin, the peak natural flood flow at James Avenue only equated to a 1:6 year flood. The 2019 Red River spring flood was driven primarily by significant winter precipitation in the upper portion of the basin, and most of the tributaries on the Canadian side of the border had peaked long before the flood crest arrived. Ice was not a major concern on the Red or Assiniboine rivers in 2019, however, some ice jamming did occur north of the City of Winnipeg in the Selkirk and Netley Creek areas.

You Mr. Prime Minister and Premier will both clearly recall my February 29, 2004 letters to your respective attentions, WRT the brutalization of my many neighbours who reside in the Upper Red River Valley. This before the successful minority victory in the last federal election by you Mr. Martin, and with Mr. Doer’s directed misconduct and sheltering of critical records continuing in Manitoba. You will also clearly recall the planned “visit to Manitoba” by as yet, an unelected PM for a “non political, but important Manitoba announcement”. Mr. Martin you will be surprised that while Premier Doer hid out at the opening of the BGH expansion project in Brandon Manitoba, your Challenger jet was held from final runway clearance and back to Ottawa, because of an inbound twin engine craft from northern Manitoba. Sir, can you imagine my profound disappointment of being 20 minutes early and not 30 – 45 minutes early and back into Winnipeg? Thus not only not being personally able to ask whether “you did the right thing, while in Manitoba” in advance of your departure out.

  • Capital Cities Program
    CANADA Capital City - Ottawa Tree - Maple tree, officially recognized as a national emblem in 1996. Animal - Beaver, officially recognized as an emblem of Canada in 1975 Motto - “From sea to sea” The current flag was adopted February 15, 1965. The name “Ottawa” is aboriginal in origin but there are varying explanations of exactly where it came from. It is generally thought to be the Anglicized form of the name of an Aboriginal people living west of Ottawa, variously referred to as Outauac, Outaouais, or Outaouit. The Ottawa people were great traders and the river may have gotten its name from the fact that it was the river used by the Ottawa people, or perhaps the river leading to the nation of the Ottawa. Ottawa, Canada's Capital, sits on the border of the province of Ontario in central Canada. It was made capital of the British colonial Province of Canada in 1857 and was reaffirmed as the national capital at Confederation in 1867. In the 20th century, a much larger Capital Region was created to serve as a frame for Canada's Capital. Since 1969, Ottawa and Gatineau (two cities that face each other across the broad Ottawa River) and the surrounding urban and rural communities have been formally recognized as Canada's "capital area." In the 1840s and 1850s, the location of the capital had been a matter of dispute. It had moved between Kingston, Montréal, Toronto and Québec City, at great expense and with great disruption. The rivals could not agree on a permanent capital, so the matter was deferred to the young Queen Victoria.
