Sections 3 and 4 together encompass the overall plan for the uOttawa campus. This section describes the foundational layers of the Campus Master Plan and the major physical “moves” 3 intended to define campus development for the next 20 or more years. The layers include the planned transportation network, open space system, land use pattern and strategic development sites. The resulting framework will ensure future development and other initiatives contribute to a coherent, unified and interconnected campus structure. The big moves provide general direction regarding the priority locations for new or renewed buildings and open spaces. By promoting a green, compact, pedestrian-friendly and energy-efficient campus, both the framework and big moves support a more sustainable campus. The framework and big moves focus on the Downtown/Sandy Hill and Lees Station areas of the campus. The structure for future development in the Alta Vista precincts is described in Section 4.
