Campus
Comments
I don’t like the deep tunnel and the path it takes
Même commentaire que centre-ville oust. World Exchange
Plaza peut-être?
Downtown stations are too deep
I’m surprised at its location and various entrances that seem to
go against regular north-south pedestrian traffic flow in that
part of downtown Ottawa. Again, can w not make this station
shallower? Why are we going so deep down?
Why? This causes the tunnel to be much longer than would
be required to follow roughly this current route
Provide access from both sides of street
Escalators will substantially increase transit times and have
reliability and accessibility problems, no information is
provided on lines with local STO bus service
Do everything you can to include a Chateau Laurier/Union
Station entrance – connecting Ottawa’s premier hotel to the
transit system would do us a lot to raise its profile
NAC/which would give possible underground mall link into
Albert Street
Route goes too far north, it should go under Confederation
Park. Tunnel could be straight and not as deep
Pouvez vous garder l’intersection Wellington-Sussex comme
tel? The Underpass et un belle endroit comme il est
Possibly have moving sidewalks to help make this long station
more accessible to those with mobility issues
Le centre de conférences (Union Station) devrait redevenir la
gare ferroviaire centrale. Des trains de banlieue et interurbain
(vers Montreal et Toronto) devraient y converger pour que les
utilisateurs de ces moyens de transport aient un accès direct au
TTCCVO ainsi qu’à la colline parlementaire
A good location and accessible from various points; I’m
perplexed however, as to why the former Train Station, now
the Conference Centre, was not chosen as the main entrance?
Why underground? More expensive!
Connect to Corkstown Bridge
A surface system would make more sense

Crossing the Somerset Bridge, there should be a straight
through access to the station instead of having to walk to the
existing underpass
An entrance at the Corktown Bridge is absolutely essential in
alleviating the issues caused by dropping the Laurier station
which by the way is a horrible idea
Implement the proposed connection between the north end of
the station and Corkstown Bridge
Can we do better with the old transitway lanes here?
No problem here
J’adore l’idée des skylights. En past, je voudrais uralment noir
ça amer
The entry/exit place on the west side of the canal, close to the
pedestrian bridge, is listed as « potential ». I think it should be
part of the original design, to facilitate access from and to
Elgin Street. This would be much more convenient to more
people than the currently planned exit/entry area to the north
which like the other currently planned one, is on the east side
of the canal. It would make more sense to have one on the west
and one on the east

The building of this station with projected open cut is going to
create traffic chaos during construction phase, i.e., Colonel By.
I like the open nature of the skylight to let in natural light.
Should it be closer to pedway crossing canal?
When traffic is light, e.g., at night your stations will be
dangerous places to be

No issues here
Implement the proposed extension so that the former
Algonquin Campus, now University of Ottawa campus and
also the large apartment buildings are accessible from the
station without closing Lees Avenue above ground. I’ve seen
