										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The City of Ottawa will be improving sidewalk safety and accessibility on Rouncey Road, at the intersections of Tapadero and Westphalian.</p>
<p>Construction is expected to begin in November and be completed by the end of December 2025, contingent of the weather.</p>
<p>The work includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Constructing a northern and southern pedestrian crossing completed with tactile walking surface indicators (TWSI) at the intersection of Rouncey Road and Tapadero Avenue.</li>
<li>Constructing an east side and west side bus pad north of the intersection of Rouncey Road and Tapadero Avenue.</li>
<li>Extending the curb and tightening the northeast corner at the intersection of Rouncey Road and Westphalian Avenue as well as implementing a new north pedestrian crossing completed with tactile walking surface indicators (TWSI) at both sides of the crossing.</li>
<li>Diagrams of the plans are included below.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The City of Ottawa has retained the contractor, Ottawa Redline Construction Ltd., to complete the work.</p>

<h2>AVIS DE TRAVAUX : Rénovation des trottoirs du chemin Rouncey</h2>
<p>La Ville d’Ottawa entamera des travaux pour améliorer la sécurité et l’accessibilité des trottoirs du chemin Rouncey aux intersections des avenues Tapadero et Westphalian.</p>
<p>Les travaux devraient commencer en novembre et devraient être achevés d’ici la fin décembre 2025, selon les conditions météorologiques.</p>
<p>Voici les travaux proposés :</p>
<ul>
<li>aménagement d’un passage pour piétons des côtés nord et sud, comprenant des indicateurs de surface podotactile à l’angle du chemin Rouncey et de l’avenue Tapadero;</li>
<li>aménagement d’une plate-forme d’arrêt d’autobus des côtés est et ouest, au nord de l’intersection du chemin Rouncey et de l’avenue Tapadero;</li>
<li>prolongement de la bordure de rue et resserrement de l’intersection à l’angle nord-est du chemin Rouncey et de l’avenue Westphalian, et aménagement d’un nouveau passage pour piétons du côté nord comprenant des indicateurs de surface podotactile des deux côtés du passage;</li>
<li>des diagrammes des plans sont présentés ci-dessous.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>La Ville d’Ottawa a confié à la société Ottawa Redline Construction Ltd le mandat d’exécuter les travaux.</p>
<p>Les résidents qui habitent près du chantier de construction recevront un avis écrit à ce sujet par la poste.</p>
<p>La Ville d’Ottawa accorde une grande importance à l’accessibilité. C’est pourquoi elle met tout en œuvre pour faciliter l’accès aux zones de construction et aux secteurs avoisinants. Si vous avez des besoins en raison d’un handicap, veuillez communiquer avec la personne soussignée. Des formats accessibles et des soutiens à la communication sont offerts sur demande, à l’adresse <a href="http://www.ottawa.ca/formataccessible">www.ottawa.ca/formataccessible</a>.</p>
<p>Les travaux nécessiteront des réductions de voie à certains endroits et des déviations pour les piétons pour une courte durée près du chantier.</p>
<p>L’entrepreneur prendra toutes les précautions nécessaires pour limiter les perturbations, mais vous devez vous attendre à certains inconvénients pendant la durée des travaux, comme du bruit, de la poussière et un ralentissement de la circulation. Il est également possible que vous ressentiez des vibrations en raison de l’utilisation d’équipements lourds. Il s’agit d’une situation courante qui ne cause généralement pas de problème. Nous tenons à vous remercier de votre patience et de votre collaboration.</p>
<p>En ce qui concerne les heures d’activité du chantier, la Ville d’Ottawa suit les exigences provinciales ainsi que son <em>Règlement sur le bruit</em> (n<sup>o</sup> 2017-255).</p>
<p>La Ville d’Ottawa est déterminée à assurer la sécurité à l’intérieur et aux alentours des chantiers. L’équipe responsable du projet continue de travailler en étroite collaboration avec le secteur et de respecter les recommandations émises par les autorités sanitaires municipales, provinciales et fédérales, ainsi que par le ministère du Travail, de l’Immigration, de la Formation et du Développement des compétences.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>La version française suit</em></p>
<p>Good news: Yesterday City Council approved my request to lower the speed limit from 50km/h to 40km/h on Cope, Rouncey, Abbott, and Cranesbill, between Terry Fox and Robert Grant Avenue.</p>
<p>The change will allow the City to install &#8220;Gateway Speed Limit Signs&#8221; making all of Fernbank Crossing, Blackstone, and Abbottsville crossing a 40km/h zone. These gateway signs are already in place in many neighbourhoods in Stittsville, and they help to establish a consistent 40km/h speed limit on all residential streets, rather than the mish-mash of speed limits that currently exist.  It makes it easier for police to enforce, and is a reminder to motorists that 40km/h is the maximum acceptable speed on residential streets.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a map showing the area that will be designated as a 40km/h zone.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13880" src="http://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone.jpg" alt="Fernbank gateway speed limit zone" width="1312" height="1316" srcset="https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone.jpg 1312w, https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone-300x300.jpg 300w, https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone-1021x1024.jpg 1021w, https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone-150x150.jpg 150w, https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone-768x770.jpg 768w, https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone-610x612.jpg 610w, https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone-1080x1083.jpg 1080w, https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone-1280x1284.jpg 1280w, https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone-980x983.jpg 980w, https://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fernbank-gateway-speed-limit-zone-480x481.jpg 480w" sizes="(max-width: 1312px) 100vw, 1312px" /></p>
<p>Each of the four streets that will change from 50km/h to 40km/h have common characteristics, with several schools and parks; homes fronting the streets on both sides; and on-street parking<br />
on both sides. <a href="http://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/7.1-ACS2024-OCC-CCS-0059-Councillor-Gower-Speed-reduction-in-the-Fernbank-area-.pdf">You can read my report to committee and council here&#8230;</a></p>
<p>The new speed limit signage will be installed later in 2024. I know that simply changing the signs won&#8217;t be enough to completely change driver behaviour, but I do think they are an important reminder to drivers to slow down in the neighbourhood. We&#8217;re also working with City staff on temporary and permanent traffic calming infrastructure on these streets to reduce speeds; as well as more crossing guards near local schools. And police are making changes to put more focus on traffic enforcement in residential communities like this one.</p>
<p>Slower speeds have a big impact on pedestrian safety. Here&#8217;s data from the World Health Organization.</p>

<h3 style="font-weight: 400;">Carnet de notes : le Conseil municipal approuve la réduction des limites de vitesse sur la promenade Cope, la rue Abbott et les chemins Rouncey et Cranesbill</h3>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Bonne nouvelle : hier, le Conseil municipal a approuvé ma demande d’abaisser la limite de vitesse de 50 km/h à 40 km/h sur la promenade Cope, la rue Abbott et les chemins Rouncey et Cranesbill, entre la promenade Terry Fox et l’avenue Robert Grant.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Grâce à ce changement, le personnel de la Ville pourra installer des panneaux de limite de vitesse à l’entrée des secteurs résidentiels, faisant de l’ensemble des zones de Fernbank Crossing, Blackstone et Abbottsville Crossing une zone à 40 km/h. Ces panneaux à l’entrée des secteurs résidentiels sont déjà en place dans de nombreux quartiers de Stittsville. Ils contribuent à établir une limite de vitesse cohérente de 40 km/h dans toutes les rues résidentielles, plutôt que le méli-mélo de limites de vitesse qui existe actuellement. Ce changement facilite le contrôle par la police et rappelle aux automobilistes que la vitesse maximale acceptable dans les rues résidentielles est de 40 km/h.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Voici une carte affichant la zone qui sera désignée comme zone à 40 km/h.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Les quatre rues qui passeront de 50 km/h à 40 km/h présentent des caractéristiques communes : plusieurs écoles et parcs les bordent, des maisons sont situées de chaque côté de la rue et des places de stationnement sont accessibles des deux côtés de la chaussée. <a href="http://glengower.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/7.1-ACS2024-OCC-CCS-0059-Councillor-Gower-Speed-reduction-in-the-Fernbank-area-.pdf">Vous pouvez lire mon rapport au Comité et au Conseil ici.</a></p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Les nouveaux panneaux de limitation de vitesse seront installés à une date ultérieure en 2024. Je suis conscient que le simple fait de changer les panneaux ne suffira pas à modifier complètement le comportement des automobilistes, mais je pense qu’ils constituent un rappel important de ralentir dans le quartier. Nous travaillons également avec le personnel de la Ville pour établir des infrastructures temporaires et permanentes de modération de la circulation dans ces rues afin de réduire les vitesses, ainsi que pour augmenter le nombre de brigadiers scolaires près des écoles locales. En outre, la police procède à des changements afin de mettre davantage l’accent sur l’application des règlements de la circulation dans les communautés résidentielles comme celle-ci.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Le ralentissement de la vitesse a une incidence importante sur la sécurité des piétons. Voici des données de l’Organisation mondiale de la Santé.</p>

<p>The Rouncey Community Park (Rouncey @ Groningen in the Fernbank area) is expected to open in early July and the play structures are being installed this week. The sandbox will be installed once the concrete is poured. We&#8217;re as anxious as you are for it to open, but please  stay away from the play structures until the work is completed and inspected.  <a href="https://ottawa.ca/en/city-hall/public-engagement/projects/blackstone-community-park">Plans and updates for Rouncey Park can be found on the City&#8217;s website&#8230;</a></p>
<hr />
<h2><strong>Le parc Rouncey est presque prêt!</strong></h2>
<p>Le parc communautaire Rouncey (au coin du chemin Rouncey et de la rue Groningen, dans le secteur Fernbank) devrait ouvrir début juillet. Les structures de jeu seront installées cette semaine, puis le bac à sable, une fois le béton coulé. Nous avons aussi hâte que vous, mais tâchez de ne pas vous approcher des structures avant la fin des travaux et de l’inspection. Rendez-vous sur le site de la Ville pour en savoir plus.</p>
