										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This week I introduced a notice of motion at Public Works and Infrastructure Committee that would lower the speed limits from 50 km/h to 40 km/h on Abbott, Fernbank, and in the Westwood neighbourhood.</p>
<ul>
<li>Abbott: A standard 40km/h speed limit from Terry Fox to West Ridge. (Currently it varies from 40km/h to 50hkm/h depending on the neighbourhood and school zones.)</li>
<li>Fernbank: 40km/h from Shea to West RIdge.  (Currently it&#8217;s signed as 60km/h between Shea and Cope.)</li>
<li>Cope: 40km/h all the way from Terry Fox to Fernbank, including the future section between Angel Heights/Goldhawk and Shea</li>
<li>A 40km/h &#8220;Gateway Zone&#8221; for the Westwood neighbourhood. (Currently 50km/h by default.)</li>
</ul>
<p>I&#8217;ve proposed the changes based on frequent feedback from Stittsville residents. Simply changing the speed signs won’t be enough on its own to change driver behaviour, but data from other areas shows that it does help lower speeds. It also reinforces that high speeds are not acceptable in a residential neighbourhood. We&#8217;re looking at adding additional traffic calming and safety infrastructure in the future as well.</p>
<p>If you have feedback or questions, please send me an email at <a href="mailto:glen.gower@ottawa.ca">glen.gower@ottawa.ca</a>.</p>
<p>The committee will consider and vote on the motion at our next meeting, scheduled for June 25, 2026.</p>
<hr />
<h3>Text of my notice of motion</h3>
<blockquote><p><strong>WHEREAS staff have completed a review of the Speed Zone Policy to develop a new framework that aligns with the Safe Systems Approach and road safety best practices, reflects Ottawa’s local context and roadway functions, integrates all existing Council</strong><strong>‑</strong><strong>approved speed</strong><strong>‑</strong><strong>related policies, and supports a cultural shift in road safety;</strong></p>
<p><strong>WHEREAS validation of staff’s preferred speed</strong><strong>‑</strong><strong>limit setting approach is underway, including assessment of corridors identified through Councillor consultations; and</strong></p>
<p><strong>WHEREAS the updated Speed Zone Policy is anticipated to be brought forward for approval in the next Term of Council; and</strong></p>
<p><strong>WHEREAS a continuous 40 km/h speed limit is desired along Abbott Street East from Terry Fox Drive to West Ridge Drive, and on Fernbank Road, from Shea Road to West Ridge Drive; and</strong></p>
<p><strong>WHEREAS Cope Drive functions as a major collector from Robert Grant Avenue to Angel Heights/Goldhawk Drive, and as a collector roadway between Shea Road to Fernbank Road, with speed limits of 50 km/h, and there is community interest in incorporating these two corridor sections into adjacent 40 km/h Gateway Zones;</strong></p>
<p><strong>WHEREAS the desired speed limit changes would align with staff’s preferred speed limit setting approach, and</strong></p>
<p><strong>WHEREAS staff do not have the required delegated authority to make speed limit changes outside of the Council-approved Speed Zone Policy, and other speed-related policies.</strong></p>
<p><strong>THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Public Works and Infrastructure Committee recommend Council approve reducing the speed limit to 40 km/h on Abbott Street East from Robert Grant Avenue to Stittsville Main Street, and on Fernbank Road from Shea Road to Cope Drive, to provide continuous speed limits on these corridors;</strong></p>
<p><strong>BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the speed limit on Cope Drive, from Robert Grant Avenue to Angel Heights/Goldhawk Drive and from Shea Road to Fernbank Road, be reduced from 50 km/h to 40 km/h;</strong></p>
<p><strong>BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the future section of Cope Drive, from Angel Heights/Goldhawk Drive to Shea Road, be posted at 40 km/h upon opening to traffic, to maintain a continuous speed limit along Cope Drive;</strong></p>
<p><strong>BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the corresponding signage changes be completed as soon as practicable.</strong></p></blockquote>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>La version française suit</em></p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Teraflex Ltd, is working on behalf of Hydro Ottawa completing civil work which will include installing a cast in place Hydro Ottawa manhole located at the North / West corner of Robert Grant Ave and Bobolink Ridge with duct work that will run across the road for future power feeding into the new residential buildings located at the North / East corner of Bobolink and Robert Grant Ave</p>
<p><strong>What: </strong>Work will involve excavation at the North / West corner of Robert Grant Ave and Bobolink Ridge to prepare for the cast-in place manhole. Work at this corner will run approximately 3.5 weeks or 17 business days.</p>
<p>Road closure of Bobolink Ridge at Robert Grant Ave round about heading east of Bobolink to Shinny Ave and West to Embankment Street will be closed daily between 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. There will be traffic flaggers helping to direct and assist with traffic flow. The intersection will open in the evening and overnight hours with road plates in<br />
place.</p>
<p><strong>When:</strong> This work is scheduled to start September 3rd and completion is anticipated by September 6th, 2024. Other work at intersection will continue with anticipated completion date of September 27th, 2024. Work will take place between 7 am and 5 pm. Bobolink Ridge will remain open to traffic with alternating lane closures<br />
expected.</p>
<p><strong>Why:</strong> Hydro Ottawa is installing a manhole and duct work for future power distribution to a<br />
new residential community at the corner of Robert Grant Ave and Bobolink Ridge.</p>
<p><strong>Who:</strong> Hydro Ottawa has retained the civil contractor, Teraflex Ltd. The contractor has been made aware that adjacent streets are private property, and the streets are not to be used for construction related activities and/or parking of equipment.</p>
<p><strong>Impact on the right of way and adjacent private properties</strong><br />
The construction is within the City’s right of way but may result in some tra3ic flow<br />
disruptions.</p>
<p><strong>On-street parking</strong><br />
As the work activities are in progress at this intersection, on-street parking may be<br />
restricted.</p>
<p><strong>Traffic management</strong><br />
To accommodate the proposed construction, various lane reductions, alternating traffic and/or detours can be expected. Access to local businesses and private properties will be maintained throughout the construction period. Access for pedestrians and cyclists will be maintained with detours.</p>
<p><strong>Construction disruptions</strong><br />
The contractor will take every precaution to minimize interruptions to the normal life of your family and/or operation of your business, but as you can appreciate, there may be some inconvenience during construction. We would like to thank you in advance for your patience and co-operation.</p>
<p><strong>Contact information</strong><br />
For any emergency outside normal working hours on weekdays and weekends, please call the City at 3-1-1. For further information about this project, please contact the City’s Project Manager.</p>

Installation de conduit souterrain traversant la rue pour l&#8217;approvisionnement électrique du nouveau développement résidentiel localisé au nord-est de Bobolink Ridge et de Robert Grant ave.</p>
<p>Le travail impliquera l&#8217;excavation du coin nord-ouest de Robert Grant ave and Bobolink Ridge pour préparer l&#8217;emplacement de la chambre électrique. Le travail sur ce coin durera environ 3 semaines et demie ou 17 jours ouvrables</p>
<p>La portion de la route de Bobolink Ridge et de Robert Grant ave dans le rond-point direction est de Bobolink vers Shinny ave et ouest vers Embankment st seront fermé quotidiennement entre 7am et 5pm. Il y aura des signaleurs routiers pour favoriser le déplacement des automobilistes. L&#8217;intersection ouvrira pour la soirée et la nuit avec<br />
plaque d&#8217;acier sur la chaussée.</p>
<p>La fermeture de cette portion de route est prévue pour le 3 septembre et nous anticipons avoir terminé le 6 septembre. Les autres travaux dans l&#8217;intersection se continueront et anticipons avoir terminé pour le 27 septembre 2024. Les travaux prendront place entre 7am et 5pm. Bobolink Ridge restera ouvert en alternance de la circulation.</p>
<p>Hydro Ottawa ont retenu Teraflex Ltd comme contracteur civil pour accomplir les travaux. Le contracteur a été prévenu que les rues adjacentes et que les propriétés privées ne seront pas utilisées pour les travaux ou stationner des véhicules. La construction se fera sur la propriété de la ville d ottawa,ce qui aura un léger impact sur les propriete privée et rues adjacentes en une augmentation de la circulation.</p>
<p>Les stationnements sur rue seront interdits pour la durée des travaux. Pour accommoder la construction de ce projet, il y aura des réductions de voies, circulation en alternance et des détours pour piétons et cyclistes.</p>
<p>Le contracteur prendra toutes les précautions requises pour minimiser l&#8217;impact sur la vie normal de l&#8217;entourage et des entreprises. Il y aura peut-être être de petits inconvénients durant la construction, nous voudrions vous remercier d&#8217;avance pour votre compréhension et patience.</p>

<p><strong>UPDATE (August 2024):</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Blasting is complete.</li>
<li>Servicing of Phase 1 is complete</li>
<li>House construction is underway.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><em>Originally published February 3, 2023; updated August 9, 2023.</em></strong></p>
<p>Taggart Investments is starting construction on eight new, three-story buildings containing back-to-back townhomes, located at the northwest corner of Robert Grant and Bobolink (the municipal address for this land is 585 Bobolink Ridge). Here’s information for residents from Taggart Investments about construction plans and how the work will impact residents.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Key contact for resident inquiries about construction</strong>:  Mike Green, Director of Development for Taggart Investments Inc. <a href="mailto:mike.green@taggart.ca">mike.green@taggart.ca; </a>Mathieu Vautour, Project Manager for Taggart Investments Inc. <a href="mailto:mathieu.vautour@taggart.ca">mathieu.vautour@taggart.ca</a></li>
<li><strong>Timeline:</strong> Blasting is scheduled to begin the week of August 28 and last for approximately three months.  Servicing for Phase 1 is scheduled to begin in September and take approximately four months. House construction in Phase 1 is anticipated to begin in March of 2024</li>
<li><strong>Blasting and hoe-ramming</strong>: Blasting will occur on this site. Notifications have been sent to everyone within 150 metres of the blasting site and vibration monitors will be installed. Prior to blasting, there will be a pre-blast survey, which is completed for all structures within 75 meters of blasting site. Typical hours of blasting are Monday to Friday between 7:00 am and 6:00 pm with up to six (6) blasts per crew occurring per day. Vibration monitors will be installed. The blasting monitors provide instant feedback to the blasting contractor to ensure they adjust their blasting program, if required. Prior to each blast, the site will be cleared of all persons and secured. This will be followed by a series of warning whistles as follows;<br />
&#8211; Five short whistles – One minute to blast<br />
&#8211; Three short whistles – Blast is imminent<br />
&#8211; One long whistle &#8211; Blast is clear<br />
Some hoe ramming may be necessary based on post blasting conditions<br />
Contact for blasting inquiries: Jeff Corace, P.Eng. M-Roc Ltd. Drilling, Blasting &amp; Earthworks Solutions (<a href="https://www.m-roc.ca">www.m-roc.ca</a>) <a href="mailto:jeff.corace@m-roc.ca">jeff.corace@m-roc.ca</a></li>
<li><strong>Road closures</strong>: No road closures are anticipated for this project.</li>
<li><strong>Working hours: </strong>Most work will occur during the weekdays and comply with the City of Ottawa’s Noise By-Law. Some Saturday work is possible but will not occur regularly.</li>
<li><strong>Street sweeping/dust control: </strong>Mitigation measures for construction impacts will include street sweeping, which will occur on a weekly basis to help control dust and keep debris from being tracked outside the construction site. A mud mat will be installed at the site entrance to mitigate material being tracked off-site. Contractors and trades will be instructed to slow down when driving onsite to help with dust control and frequent watering will occur. Silt fence will also be placed on the site perimeter to protect water quality from sediment and construction debris.</li>
<li><strong>Parking plan: </strong>Employee and trade parking is expected to be on-site.</li>
<li><strong>Tree removal: </strong>The site is clear. No tree clearing is required. A landscape plan is in the process of being approved by the City and will detail proposed tree planting, sodding, connections to off-site walkways and site fencing.</li>
</ul>

<h2><strong>585, côte Bobolink : Construction, contacts et calendrier des travaux</strong></h2>
<p><em>Publié initialement le 3 février 2023; mis à jour le 9 août 2023.</em></p>
<p>Taggart Investments entame la construction de huit nouveaux bâtiments de trois étages contenant des maisons en rangée dos à dos, situés à l’angle nord-ouest de Robert Grant et Bobolink (l’adresse municipale de ce terrain est 585, côte Bobolink). Voici des renseignements fournis par Taggart Investments sur les plans de construction et les répercussions que les travaux auront sur les résidents.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Personne-ressource principale pour les demandes de renseignements des résidents concernant la construction</strong> : Mike Green, directeur de l’aménagement pour Taggart Investments Inc. <a href="mailto:mike.green@taggart.ca">mike.green@taggart.ca; </a>Mathieu Vautour, gestionnaire de projet pour Taggart Investments Inc. <a href="mailto:mathieu.vautour@taggart.ca">mathieu.vautour@taggart.ca</a></li>
<li><strong>Calendrier des travaux :</strong> Les travaux d’excavation devraient commencer la semaine du 28 août et durer environ trois mois. Les travaux de viabilisation de la phase 1 devraient commencer en septembre et durer environ quatre mois. Le début de la construction des maisons de la phase 1 est prévu pour mars 2024.</li>
<li><strong>Dynamitage et excavation à la rétrocaveuse</strong> : • Des travaux de dynamitage sont prévus sur le site. Tous les résidents se trouvant dans un rayon de 150 mètres du site de dynamitage ont reçu un avis, et des détecteurs de vibrations seront installés. Une inspection prédynamitage sera également effectuée pour toutes les structures situées dans un rayon de 75 mètres du site. Les travaux de dynamitage se dérouleront normalement du lundi au vendredi entre 7 h et 18 h (maximum de six opérations par équipe et par jour). Des détecteurs de vibrations seront installés. Ils permettront à l’entrepreneur de savoir ce qui se passe en temps réel et de faire des ajustements, au besoin. Avant chaque opération de dynamitage, la zone sera évacuée et sécurisée. Une série de sifflets d’avertissement sera émise, selon le protocole suivant :<br />
– Cinq coups de sifflet courts – une minute avant l’explosion;<br />
– Trois coups de sifflet courts – l’explosion est imminente;<br />
– Un long coup de sifflet – l’opération est terminée.<br />
Des travaux d’excavation à la rétrocaveuse peuvent s’avérer nécessaires, en fonction des conditions qui prévalent après le dynamitage.<br />
Les résidents peuvent adresser leurs demandes de renseignements à Jeff Corace, ingénieur pour M-Roc Ltd. S Drilling, Blasting &amp; Earthworks Solutions (<a href="https://www.m-roc.ca">www.m-roc.ca</a>) <a href="mailto:jeff.corace@m-roc.ca">jeff.corace@m-roc.ca</a>.</li>
<li><strong>Fermetures de routes</strong> : Aucune fermeture de route n’est prévue pour ce projet.</li>
<li><strong>Horaires de travail : </strong>Les travaux de dynamitage auront essentiellement lieu pendant la semaine, conformément au<em> Règlement sur le bruit</em> de la Ville d’Ottawa. Il se peut qu’il y ait exceptionnellement du dynamitage le samedi.</li>
<li><strong>Balayage des rues et contrôle des poussières :</strong> Différentes mesures seront prises pour atténuer les répercussions des travaux. Les rues seront notamment balayées chaque semaine pour contrôler la poussière et éviter que des débris se retrouvent en dehors du chantier. Une natte pour terrain boueux sera installée à l’entrée du site pour éviter que les matériaux ne soient entraînés hors du site. Les entrepreneurs et les différents corps de métier auront pour consigne de ralentir lorsqu’ils circulent sur le site pour éviter de créer trop de poussière, et le sol sera régulièrement arrosé. Une clôture anti-érosion sera installée autour du périmètre du chantier pour préserver la qualité de l’eau et empêcher les sédiments et les débris de la contaminer.</li>
<li><strong>Plan de stationnement : </strong>Tous les employés et les ouvriers se stationneront sur le chantier.</li>
<li><strong>Abattage des arbres : </strong>Le site est dégagé. Aucun déboisement n’est nécessaire. Un plan d’aménagement paysager est en cours d’approbation par la Ville. Il détaillera les plantations d’arbres proposées, le gazonnement, les raccordements avec les allées hors site et les clôtures du site.</li>
</ul>

<p>The City of Ottawa is seeking your input regarding the design of a new community park in the Westwood subdivision in Stittsville. It&#8217;s labeled as &#8220;Park No. 3&#8221; in the Fernbank Community Design Plan. Despite being referred to as Cope Park, the park&#8217;s official name will be determined through the Commemorative Naming process.</p>
<p>The park will be located at 785 Cope Drive at Dagenham and is approximately 3.04 hectares. This community park will serve as a special space for the neighbourhood, offering a wide range of both passive and active recreational opportunities.</p>
<p>The conceptual plan includes a full-size soccer field, two tennis courts coupled with four pickleball courts, a multipurpose seasonal ice rink that converts into basketball courts, a puddle rink, playgrounds for both junior and senior age groups, a swing set, a sandy play area, a splash pad, as well as a gazebo. These recreational features are linked with open play zones, as well as connected by an asphalt walking trail with seating and shading. Moreover, accessible seating along the trail aims to support the City of Ottawa&#8217;s Older Adult Plan. Additionally, a multi-use pathway along the park&#8217;s Cope Drive frontage, alongside a designated bus stop are also planned for.</p>
<p>To ensure the park maintains a lush green environment, a diverse selection of native plants will be incorporated, aiming to achieve a minimum of 30% canopy coverage throughout the area.</p>
<p>Two different <a href="https://engage.ottawa.ca/cope-park">concept plans</a> with images of the proposed designs for the playgrounds and splash pad options are available for review.</p>
<p><strong>Residents are invited to participate in the <a href="https://engage.ottawa.ca/cope-park/survey_tools/park-amenities-2">survey on Engage Ottawa</a> to share insights and preferences. Your feedback is important in shaping the future of this community park.</strong></p>

<h2>PARC COPE (PARC COMMUNAUTAIRE DE FERNBANK 3 / WESTWOOD) : AVANT-PROJET</h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>La Ville d’Ottawa souhaite recueillir vos commentaires sur la conception d’un nouveau parc communautaire dans le lotissement Westwood, à Stittsville. Il est désigné comme « Parc n° 3 » dans le Plan de conception communautaire de Fernbank. Bien que le parc soit connu sous le nom de parc Cope, son nom officiel sera déterminé dans le cadre de la procédure de dénomination commémorative.</p>
<p>Le parc Cope sera situé au 785, promenade Cope à Dagenham et aura une superficie d’environ 3,04 hectares. Ce parc communautaire servira d’espace particulier pour le quartier, offrant un large éventail de loisirs passifs et actifs.</p>
<p>Le plan conceptuel comprend un terrain de soccer pleine grandeur, deux terrains de tennis avec quatre terrains de tennis léger, une aire polyvalente saisonnière pour une patinoire et des terrains de basketball, une petite patinoire, des terrains de jeux pour jeunes enfants et enfants plus âgés, des balançoires, une aire de jeux en sable, une aire de jeux d’eau, ainsi qu’un kiosque. Ces aspects récréatifs sont reliés à des zones de jeux ouvertes, ainsi qu’à un sentier de promenade asphalté avec des bancs et des espaces ombragés. De plus, les places assises le long du sentier visent à soutenir le Plan relatif aux personnes âgées de la Ville d’Ottawa. En outre, il est prévu d’aménager un sentier polyvalent le long de la façade de la promenade Cope, en plus d’un arrêt d’autobus.</p>
<p>Pour que le parc conserve un environnement verdoyant et luxuriant, il y aura intégration d’une grande diversité de plantes indigènes, avec pour objectif d’atteindre au moins 30 % de couvert forestier dans toute la zone.</p>
<p>Deux <a href="https://engage.ottawa.ca/cope-park">plans conceptuels</a> différents comportant des images des conceptions proposées pour les terrains de jeux et les aires de jeux d’eau sont disponibles pour examen.</p>
<p><strong>Les résidents sont invités à participer au </strong><a href="https://engage.ottawa.ca/cope-park/survey_tools/park-amenities-2"><strong>sondage sur Participons Ottawa</strong></a><strong> pour faire part de leurs idées et de leurs préférences. Vos commentaires sont importants pour que nous puissions façonner l’avenir de ce parc communautaire.</strong></p>

<ul>
<li>access for pedestrians and vehicles</li>
<li>walkways</li>
<li>exterior lighting</li>
<li>waste facilities</li>
<li>landscaping</li>
<li>drainage</li>

L’endroit sera officiellement considéré comme étant un parc de la Ville, l’intention étant de conserver la forêt de cèdres et de créer un parc à chiens sans laisse. Ce terrain est identifié comme étant l’« îlot 290 » sur le plan de lotissement. <a href="http://glengower.ca/information/update-agreement-reached-for-the-city-to-purchase-and-acquire-shea-woods/">En savoir plus sur le boisé du chemin Shea…</a></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>La version française suit</em></p>
<p>Since December, we&#8217;ve been asking for your feedback about how to improve transit service to the Fernbank area. Your feedback included wanting routes closer to homes, and more direct service to downtown.</p>
<p>In response, <a href="https://www.octranspo.com/en/plan-your-trip/service-changes/">new OC Transpo service changes</a> to Route 167—now Route 67—will make taking transit more convenient and direct for residents in the growing neighbourhoods of Abbottsville Crossing, Bradley Commons, Blackstone, Fernbank Crossing, and Westwood. The improved service begins on April 24, 2022.</p>
<h4>NEW Route 67</h4>
<p>Route 167 will be renumbered as NEW Route 67. The new route will be realigned between Cope and Westphalian to operate along Rouncey Road (instead of Terry Fox Drive) through the Blackstone neighbourhood. In the morning and afternoon peak periods, Route 67 will bypass Terry Fox Station and extend all the way to Tunney&#8217;s Pasture Station.</p>
<p>Route 252 will be shortened to start at Templeford and Cope in the morning and end at Cope and Northgraves in the afternoon. Route 67 will provide Abbottsville residents with a connection to Line 1 at Tunney&#8217;s Pasture Station.  Route 67 will provide a faster and more direct route to the Tunney&#8217;s Pasture LRT station than Route 252.</p>

<h2>NOUVEAU : le circuit 67 améliorera le service dans le secteur de Fernbank</h2>
<p>Depuis décembre, nous sollicitons vos idées sur la façon d’améliorer le transport en commun dans le secteur de Fernbank. Parmi vos réponses : une meilleure desserte des zones résidentielles et des trajets plus directs vers le centre-ville.</p>
<p>Pour répondre à ces demandes, <a href="https://www.octranspo.com/fr/planifiez/changements-service/">OC Transpo a modifié le</a> circuit 167 – désormais le circuit 67 –, ce qui rendra le transport en commun plus pratique et direct pour les résidents des quartiers en croissance d’Abbottsville Crossing, de Bradley Commons, de Blackstone, de Fernbank Crossing et de Westwood. Le service amélioré entre en vigueur le 24 avril 2022.</p>
<h4><strong>NOUVEAU CIRCUIT 67</strong></h4>
<p>Le circuit 167 deviendra le NOUVEAU circuit 67. Le circuit sera modifié entre la promenade Cope et l’avenue Westphalian pour emprunter le chemin Rouncey (au lieu de la promenade Terry-Fox) dans le quartier Blackstone. Aux périodes de pointe du matin et de l’après-midi, le circuit 67 contournera la station Terry Fox et se prolongera jusqu’à la station Tunney’s Pasture.</p>
<p>Le circuit 252 sera raccourci pour commencer à l’intersection des promenades Templeford et Cope le matin et finir à l’intersection de la promenade Cope et du croissant Northgraves l’après-midi. Le circuit 67 assurera aux résidents d’Abbottsville une correspondance avec la Ligne 1 à la station Tunney’s Pasture.  Le circuit 67 offrira un itinéraire plus rapide et plus direct vers la station de train léger sur rail de Tunney’s Pasture que le circuit 252.</p>
