OTTAWA — Council has approved the next step on plans for major Transitway extensions into north Kanata and across suburbs on the city’s south side.
Six kilometres of busway in Kanata are to be built in the median of March Road, from the Queensway to Maxwell Bridge Road in South March, in a project expected to cost $350 million or more by the time construction begins several years from now.
In south Ottawa, about the same length of Transitway is to connect the shopping cores of Barrhaven and Riverside South across the new Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge in a project expected to cost about $225 million in 2012 dollars. Council’s signing off on the projects Wednesday moves them along into environmental assessments.
The approval also gives the go-ahead to an interim plan to add traffic lights and some bus-only lanes along Chapman Mills Drive in Barrhaven, which has been left with oddly-shaped intersections and a large unused median that was intended to be a train corridor until council scrapped the north-south light-rail line six years ago.
