Chapter 3 – Strategic Directions In Section 3.1, this chapter presents a Transportation Vision for Ottawa that guides the remainder of this plan. Sections 3.2 through 3.9 discuss eight key strategic directions that are essential to achieving that vision: • Creating supportive land use – Shaping development to support transportation goals • Managing transportation demand – Influencing why, when, where and how people travel • Managing the transportation system – Maximizing the efficiency of infrastructure and services • Enhancing safety and security – Reducing the personal risks to individuals during travel • Protecting the environment – Reducing the impacts of transportation facilities and activities • Managing and maintaining assets – Minimizing life-cycle costs while providing desired levels of service • Funding implementation – Enhancing the City’s ability to pay the costs of this plan • Measuring performance – Monitoring progress toward objectives These strategic directions are themes embedded in Chapters 4 through 6, which are the core of this plan. Sections 3.2 through 3.9 include cross-cutting policies and actions that are not found elsewhere in this plan, and identify key linkages to later chapters. 3.1 Ottawa’s Transportation Vision During preparation of the City’s 2003 Transportation Master Plan, a Transportation Vision was developed to express how Ottawa’s transportation system in 2021 might benefit residents. That vision has been enhanced through public consultation during the Transportation Master Plan update process. The new Transportation Vision continues to recognize that transportation is a means to an end — namely, the protection and improvement of our quality of life. It is intended to be a lasting expression of critical directions and outcomes — what we wish to achieve through transportation, and why. The remainder of the Transportation Master Plan details the how, where, when and who of specific projects or services. The Transportation Vision includes a summary statement plus 12 elements, each of which includes several principles that are intended to guide the City’s future actions. Figure 3.1 presents a summary of the vision, and the pages that follow provide additional discussion of each element and its principles. TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN Page 21 NOVEMBER 2008
