Virtual (includes presentation)
In-Person (display boards only)
The City of Ottawa will host two open houses for St-Laurent Boulevard Transit Priority Corridor Environmental Assessment (EA) Study. These are the final public open house events for the EA study.
While the same information will be provided at each event, one will be held virtually and the other will be held in-person. The EA study has investigated options to improve transit service efficiency and travel environment for all modes (walking, cycling, transit, autos and trucks) as appropriate along the corridor. The Study corridor is illustrated in the key map.
The events will feature a presentation of the Preliminary Recommended Plan and Functional Design, along with an overview of the evaluation process that led to the development of the Plan. Potential impacts, recommended mitigation measures, implementation and phasing and the next steps will also be discussed.
The presentation and supporting materials will be posted on the project website. The website will include a link to the online survey that can be completed anytime until July 10, 2025.Study process:
The Study is being conducted in accordance with the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) process for a Schedule C project.
