Ottawa councillor Tobi Nussbaum officially opened Adàwe crossing, the new pedestrian bridge that links Donald Street and Somerset Street East, on Friday, November 4, 2015.
This new link provides pedestrians and cyclists with easy access to the communities, amenities and employment located on either side of the Rideau River. The name Adàwe is the Algonquin term meaning to trade and is symbolic of the history of the Rideau River, the aboriginal heritage of the area and the bridges ability to link the communities on either side.

Well-known local architect Barry Padolsky (who lives in the area and has been calling for the linking bridge for year) dressed up for the occasion as he traversed the bridge for the first time with other residents. Mayor Jim Watson, some city councillors and hundreds of happy local residents were on hand Friday (Dec 4, 2015) for the official opening of the new pedestrian bridge over the Rideau River. Given the Algonquin name, Adawe, which means “to trade,” the bridge now links Somerset Street in Sandy Hill with Donald Street in New Edinburgh.
