The City of Ottawa has initiated an Environmental Assessment (EA) Study for the proposed widening of Eagleson Road from Cadence Gate to Hope Side Road. This project is being undertaken to determine the appropriate modifications required to meet both existing and future transportation needs along the Eagleson Road corridor. At the same time, to provide guidance to active development applications adjacent to the road, the City is determining appropriate design parameters and road right-of-way for Fernbank Road between Eagleson Road and Terry Fox Drive.

The project is being planned as a Schedule ‘C’ project under the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (2000) document. The EA Study will confirm project need and justification, document existing environmental conditions, examine alternatives and potential impacts, and recommend mitigation measures.

There is an opportunity at any time during the EA process for interested persons to provide comments. Any comments received pertaining to the study will be collected under the Environmental Assessment Act and, with the exception of personal information, will become part of the public record.

The purpose of the third open house is to present and obtain public input on the following:

• Assessment of Alternative Design Concepts
• Recommended Design Alternative
• Environmental Impacts of the Project & Proposed Mitigation Measures
