Nicholas Street will be closed permanently to traffic from Rideau Street to Besserer Street as of Monday, April 4.

The purpose of the closure is to prepare for Ogilvy Square, a public pedestrian space that will feature cafés, art installations and special events. It will also have “an enhanced pedestrian surface, street trees and bicycle parking,” according to the City of Ottawa.

Construction begins Monday and is projected to be completed by the summer. Ogilvy Square is part of the ongoing renewal of Rideau Street, which the city calls “the Rideau/Arts Precinct.”

The project is being paid for by the Cadillac Fairview Corporation Ltd., the company that owns the Rideau Centre.

Businesses in the area will remain open during construction.
