										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Originally published October 8, 2025</em></p>
<p><em>La version française suit</em></p>
<p>The City of Ottawa has started a study along West Ridge Drive in response to traffic and pedestrian safety concerns raised by residents and outlined in the Transportation Master Plan. The purpose of this study is to recommend permanent roadway modifications between intended to improve safety, primarily by reducing vehicular speeds, adding bike lanes, and enhancing pedestrian connectivity through the addition of a new sidewalk.</p>
<h3>Public engagement session</h3>
<p>Join us for an in-person public engagement session to review the conceptual plan and provide your feedback:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Date:</strong> Saturday, October 25, 2025</li>
<li><strong>Time:</strong> 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.</li>
<li><strong>Location:</strong> Trans Canada Trail trailhead at West Ridge Drive and Abbott Street</li>
</ul>
<p>We strongly encourage residents to attend, learn about the proposed traffic calming and sidewalk plan, and share their input with the study team.</p>
<p><strong>Website:</strong> <a href="https://engage.ottawa.ca/west-ridge-drive-traffic-calming-bike-lanes-and-sidewalk">engage.ottawa.ca/west-ridge-drive-traffic-calming-bike-lanes-and-sidewalk</a></p>
<p><em><strong>Accessibility is an important consideration for the City of Ottawa.</strong> If you require special accommodation, or for any inquiries, please contact: <strong>Sophie Gauvreau, </strong>Project Manager, Neighbourhood Traffic Calming <a href="mailto:Sophie.Gauvreau@ottawa.ca">Sophie.Gauvreau@ottawa.ca</a></em></p>
<h3>Proposed new safety and accessibility measures</h3>
<ul>
<li>1.7m wide painted bike lanes with 0.3m painted buffer on both sides of West Ridge Drive from Beverly Street to Stittsville Main Street.</li>
<li>Vertical traffic calming measures (ex. Speed humps) along West Ridge Drive between Hazeldean Road and Abbott Street West.</li>
<li>A raised pedestrian crossing (PXO) with bulb-outs at West Ridge Drive and Alfred McCoy Park.</li>
<li>A sidewalk on the west side of West Ridge Drive between Alfred McCoy Park and Sable Run Drive.</li>
<li>Upgrade of the existing PXO near Delamere Drive to a raised PXO and if feasible, narrowing of the road with a bulb-out to reduce the crossing distance for pedestrians. These are practices taken to lower the risk of collisions and improve visibility.</li>
</ul>

<h2>Promenade West Ridge &#8211; Modération de la circulation, pistes cyclables et trottoir</h2>
<p>La Ville d’Ottawa a entrepris une étude de la promenade West Ridge en réponse aux préoccupations exprimées par les résidents concernant la sécurité routière et piétonnière, ainsi qu’aux orientations énoncées dans le Plan directeur des transports. L’objectif de cette étude est de recommander des modifications permanentes à la chaussée visant à améliorer la sécurité – principalement en réduisant la vitesse des véhicules, en ajoutant des pistes cyclables désignées et en améliorant la connectivité piétonnière grâce à l’ajout d’un nouveau trottoir.</p>
<h3>Séance de participation publique</h3>
<p>Nous vous invitons à participer à une séance de participation publique en personne afin d’examiner le plan conceptuel et de nous faire part de vos commentaires :</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Date :</strong> le samedi 25 octobre 2025</li>
<li><strong>Heure :</strong> de 10 h à 12 h</li>
<li><strong>Lieu :</strong> Point de départ du sentier TransCanada, à l’intersection de la promenade West Ridge et de la rue Abbott</li>
</ul>
<p>Nous encourageons vivement les résidents à participer, à se renseigner sur le plan proposé de modération de la circulation et de trottoir, et à partager leurs commentaires avec l’équipe de projet.</p>

<p>(Le français suit)</p>
<p>The playground replacement work at <strong>Fringewood Park</strong> and <strong>West Ridge Park A</strong> started on July 3 and will be completed later this month, weather permitting. You can find more information about the park renewal project and contact information for the park planner responsible for the files by following these links:</p>
<ul>

<li><a href="https://ottawa.ca/en/city-hall/public-engagement/projects/west-ridge-park">West Ridge Park &#8220;A&#8221; </a></li>
</ul>
<p>We&#8217;ve received several comments from residents that replacing the play structures while kids are on holiday was ill-advised. This is made necessary by the timing of the construction season, which is weather-dependant. The wet and cold spring has caused delays in construction work and the City&#8217;s contractors are running behind on many park projects.</p>
<hr />
<h2>MISE À JOUR : les parcs West Ridge et Fringewood font peau neuve avec de nouveaux terrains de jeu</h2>
<p>Le remplacement des terrains de jeu des parcs Fringewood et West Ridge « A », commencé le 3 juillet, se terminera ce mois-ci, si les conditions météorologiques le permettent. Pour en savoir plus sur le projet de réfection des parcs et connaître les coordonnées de la planificatrice de parcs responsable du dossier, cliquez sur les liens suivants :</p>

<li><a href="https://ottawa.ca/fr/hotel-de-ville/engagement-du-public/projets/parc-west-ridge">Parc West Ridge « A »</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Nous avons reçu plusieurs commentaires de la part de résidents disant qu’il était mal avisé de remplacer les structures de jeu pendant les vacances des enfants. Nous ne pouvions cependant pas faire autrement en raison de la saison des travaux, qui varie selon les conditions météorologiques. Les travaux ont été décalés à cause du printemps froid et pluvieux, et les entrepreneurs de la Ville ont pris du retard dans de nombreux projets de parcs.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>(Press release via City of Ottawa / Le français suit)</em></p>
<p>The City of Ottawa’s Commemorative Naming Committee is conducting public consultation on the following naming proposal:</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">To name the park located at 73 West Ridge Drive, Alfred McCoy Park </span></li>
</ul>
<p><strong><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">Alfred McCoy (Ward 6 &#8211; Stittsville)</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">In recognition of his extensive community service and contributions to advancing recreation programs in Stittsville, the City of Ottawa has received a proposal to name the West Ridge Park B, Alfred McCoy Park.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">Born in Goulbourn on what is now Mansfield Road, Mr. McCoy entered the trucking business at an early age. He transitioned to the road construction business, joining fellow Stittsville resident William J. Bell to form the McCoy-Bell Construction Company in the 1940s. The company eventually split, leading to the founding of the A.H. McCoyConstruction Company Limited, which became one of the largest road building firms in Eastern Ontario. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">In 1963 the Village of Stittsville passed a resolution to create The A.H. McCoy Park, but development pressures in the 1980s led to construction of the Carleton Apartments for seniors where the park was located. This commemorative naming proposal seeks to honour Alfred McCoy’s historical services and donations to the community of Stittsville.</span></p>
<p>View the <a href="https://ottawa.ca/en/city-hall/your-city-government/policies-and-administrative-structure/administrative-policies-0#current-commemorative-naming-proposals">proposal online</a> at ottawa.ca.</p>

<p><strong>La Ville sollicite l’avis de la population sur un proposition de nom commémoratif</strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Ottawa </strong>– Le Comité sur les dénominations commémoratives de la Ville d’Ottawa tient actuellement des consultations publiques pour le  proposition de nom commémoratif suivant :</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">Nommer le parc West Ridge « B », situé au 73, promenade West Ridge, le « parc Alfred-McCoy »; </span></li>

<p><strong><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">Alfred McCoy (quartier 6 &#8211; Stittsville)</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">En reconnaissance de ses services communautaires exceptionnels et de ses remarquables contributions à l’avancement des programmes récréatifs à Stittsville, une demande a été déposée auprès de la Ville d’Ottawa afin de nommer le parc West Ridge « B », le « parc Alfred-McCoy ».</span></p>
<p><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">Né sur le chemin 7th Line de Goulbourn, maintenant chemin Mansfield, A. H. McCoy est entré à un très jeune âge dans le secteur du camionnage, puis est passé à la construction de routes, se joignant à son collègue résident de Stittsville, William J. Bell, pour former l’entreprise McCoy-Bell Construction dans les années 1940. Finalement, l’entreprise de construction s’est divisée et la nouvelle société A. H. McCoy Construction Company Limited est devenue l’une des plus grandes entreprises de construction de routes dans l’est de l’Ontario. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-style: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important;">En 1963, le Conseil du village de Stittsville a unanimement adopté une résolution pour l’avancement des activités récréatives ainsi que l’aménagement non seulement du parc Alexander-Grove, mais aussi d’un ancien parc nommé le « parc A. H.-McCoy ». Malheureusement, en raison de pressions d’aménagement dans les années 1980, les appartements Carleton pour les aînés ont été construits là où le parc A. H.-McCoy était anciennement situé. Cette proposition de nom commémoratif a pour but d’honorer le passé de services et de dons d’Alfred McCoy à la communauté de Stittsville.</span></p>
