Champlain Park Traffic Calming Measures

July 18, 2012 – 1:59 pm

The former Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton (RMOC), the former City of Ottawa, and the National Capital Commission undertook the Island Park, Kirkwood, and Churchill Area Transportation Assessment and Traffic Calming Plan (hereinafter IKC Plan) between 1994 and 1996 to identify a series of physical measures to address the impact of traffic on the neighbourhoods around these three major road corridors.

Implementation funding for the Area Traffic Management (ATM) measures planned on Clearview, Carleton and Sunnymede Avenue became available in 2009.  A public meeting was held on June 9, 2010 at the Champlain Park fieldhouse, to provide the community an opportunity to review the planned implementation of the Area Traffic Management measures in the area and to gather comments. City staff also attended the meeting and presented residents with the implementation plan of the measures. Feedback from the community was collected and assessed.

As the result of the public meeting and also feedback, some refinements were made to the ATM measures.

Below is the location of all the traffic calming measures, construction will commence shortly.
