At the mid-point in this Term of City Council, the Ottawa Cycling Plan is being carried out successfully, with a major increase in budget for cycling projects, a growing network of cycling lanes and a rising number of cyclists.
A mid-term report on the City of Ottawa’s Cycling Plan was received today by Transportation Committee.
The City’s program for expanding cycling facilities has been helped by the addition of new federal money to fund projects as well as by incorporating cycling facilities into road construction or renewal projects. The total investment in Ottawa cycling infrastructure will be about $80 million for this Term of Council.
The Cross-Town Bike Network, a key piece of Ottawa’s cycling system across wards 11 through 18, is 60 per cent complete, with 33 kilometres of cycling facilities added or upgraded.
Transportation Committee also received a mid-term update report about the City’s Pedestrian Plan.
In 2013, Council approved the Ottawa Pedestrian Plan – a list of sidewalk projects planned until 2031 to improve pedestrian connectivity. Phase 1 identifies 33 stand-alone sidewalk projects to be implemented between 2014 and 2019, an estimated investment of $8.3 million. This mid-term progress report provides a summary of the 10 stand-alone sidewalk projects completed as of the end of 2016 and an update of the Phase 1 projects still to be implemented.
In addition, in the current Term of Council, 17.1 kilometres of new sidewalks have been constructed as part of new development projects and 7.6 kilometres of sidewalks have been added as part of street reconstruction projects.
Transportation Committee today also approved a report that combines a review of the right-of-way patio program and an assessment of the 2016 Streetside Spots pilot project. The new Right of Way Patio By-law would regulate right-of-way patios including café seating, parklets and streetside spots.
A new fee regime is being proposed with a winter season and a summer season. Fees will be calculated on a monthly rate, as opposed to the current daily rate. With the change to a two-season, monthly model, fees will decrease for the typical patio permit holder by approximately 20 per cent for the summer season.
