Hazeldean Road Widening Project

It has been a long time coming but Hazeldean Road is receiving a major facelift, as the main east-west corridor will be widened from two lanes to four lanes from Carp Road to Terry Fox Drive.

The funding for this project comes through the Federal, Provincial and Municipal government's shovel-ready stimulus funding program. At $65 million, this is one of the largest investment being made in the entire City and at 750 jobs it will be the largest job creator for all stimulus projects citywide. As a shovel-ready project, it must be substantially completed by 2011.

This is a major need for our community and I am encouraged by the commitment being made to enhance our quality of life in Stittsville. The widening of this road is of critical importance, given the current and planned growth of our community and along Hazeldean Road.

The widening project has been divided into two phases. For Phase One, which includes the widening from the Carp River to just west of Iber Road, the project has been awarded to Thomas Cavanagh Construction Ltd. who is currently undertaking preliminary work. It is anticipated that on-site work will begin in the late fall. For Phase Two, which runs from Iber Road to Carp Road, the project was awarded to Graydex Ottawa Inc. Major road widening construction will take place in the spring of 2010. The road will be constructed to urban standard, meaning it will include both sidewalks and bicycle lanes.

Project updates will be provided in the Councillor's column in the local community newspapers.

Kanata West Transportation Infrastructure
On June 26 a public meeting was held to discuss the transportation connections in Kanata West. This meeting was a follow up to a meeting held on September 18, 2007 to discuss the transportation connections in Kanata West.

The possible closure or redirection of Johnwoods Street has been discussed but the majority of the community is not in favour of any change to Johnwoods Street current format.

There has also been discussion regarding the possible connection of Stittsville Main St to Maple Grove Rd. A further traffic study has been done on this proposal and it is suggesting that these two roads should be connected. City staff and the Councillor must further discuss this proposal and no decisions have been finalized at this time.

Please contact our office to provide your comments on this proposal.
