le commerce au détail. Maintenue la circulation automobile sur les rues Albert et
Slater ce pera jereferible from tout le monde!
Perhaps wider sidewalks with greenery. It would make downtown much more
attractive
I like the idea of wider sidewalks and a friendlier pedestrian environment
Bike-dedicated (i.e., separated by concrete curb) lanes
High-speed, safer express service based on quiet double-deckers and coach seating
say $200 per month
No. there should be pedestrianized or cars limited
Make into a pedestrian area, like in many major cities
More bike racks since NO ONE will bring their bikes down four levels!
Se crois qu’on devrais élargir les trottoirs Ottawa marquée cruellement de vendure
dans le centretown
Yes, plus bicycle lanes
Help balance local bus traffic, as well as widen sidewalks. Make sure there is a
functional cycling lane through the entire downtown core
L’espace accordé à la circulation automobile ne doit absolument pas croître. Les
voies réservées doivent impérativement être transformées en pistes cyclables
utilitaires, en trottoirs élargis et en bandes de vendure. On doit accorder moins
d’espace aux voitures stationnées avec circulation et considérablement plus aux
commerçants, aux visiteurs, aux piéton et au cyclistes. L’activité doit y augmenter
mais la pollution sonore y diminuer d’autant
Albert and Slater and MacKenzie Bridge should have surface LRT to provide an
alternative for tourists who are afraid of getting lost in the subway catacombs, and
residents who are terrified of depths. It also provides an alternative for when there is
an incident in the subway. It will also be faster for short trip in the core (Bank to
Rideau Centre) than 4 escalators down a long walk in the station, a long wait for a
long train and then repeating the process at the other end
Convert the streets back to bi-directional vehicular traffic
I am a walker (do not own a car) so I like the idea of wider sidewalks and more room
on the road for bicycles. Let’s minimize the buses downtown please!
Maintain normal mix of bus and street vehicles. Eliminate bulb-outs and the zig-zag
traffic lanes
Dedicate the space to pedestrians
L”objectif d’apoter le TLR n’est-il pas de rédure la pollution de l’air cause par les ga
nocifs
Pourquoi le tunnel – le TLR pourait utilisér albert et Slater – au un cen—plus
raisennable pour les contribuuables – quels servient le côuts?
Question 7: Do you have any specific questions or comments on the planning
work completed/resented to-date?
Well done, we really need the LRT for the future health of Downtown. I moved to
Ottawa in 1973 and there was talk of a tunnel when the transitway was being
designed and it was rejected. I hope this time it actually gets built.
What was wrong with the last north-south project that was cancelled?
If I want to go to Bayshore from my home station of Smyth, I will have to transfer
twice. Does anyone realize that we have winter and snow for 5 months of the year,
are you guys nuts making everyone transfer for the downtown section? Do not
eliminate the direct bus lane vehicle trip that I can make. Thank god I still have a
car. It’s going to be harder to get around.
Yes, what a terrible waste of money – no options except expensive tunnels have ever
been shown, the consultation process appears to be a grand farce
How much did it cost? What other alternatives have been considered, stop looking
at Ottawa as a downtown centered city, it isn’t anymore!!!
Still think the surface options should be discussed. Why are we making room for
cars?
I like the fact that they can use a lot of the existing stations, and only need to make
modifications to convert it to LRT
Work with pedestrian/cycling advocacy groups to ensure that they are adequately
represented in station plans, otherwise good work with such a difficult and scary
sounding project
Put light rail on Hazeldean/Robertson/baseline/Heron/Walkley/Innes corridor.
Rideau/Montreal/St. Joseph corridor
Build the N/S system
I think you’re on the right track (pardon the pun). Your plan calls for something
better than buses and for tunneling through downtown. Those decisions should lead
to a phenomenal improvement in the transit system once the system is up and
running
Progress has been amazingly slow! The current O-Train should be extended to
Manotick Station, not just to Leitrim Road to intercept potential traffic from the
south. This just might mean that less money will have to be spent expanding roads
to the south. Can the city ask the province to pay 2/3 as with other Ontario cities?
Move fast...2017 is capacity for downtown transitway. Involve STO...Rideau is still
a mess...automate the whole thing...avoids training drives and strike disruptions!
Very concerned at alternative bus routes. How do I get to Cyrville from Kanata?
I am very concerned about the non-use of POW Bridge for use as Light Rail
expansion across to Gatineau. Wake up and use what we paid for!
