OTTAWA The city is looking to extend a road in the east end which, if approved, would be near the Mer Bleue Wetland. The City of Ottawa is completing the Brian Cobourn Boulevard / Cumberland Transitway (Navan Road to Blair Road) environmental assessment study. A final public consultation is being held virtually with a deadline of this Friday at 5 p.m. Area councillors say the extension is needed to help with the growing traffic from the many additional homes in the area. “Unfortunately, the transportation infrastructure just has not kept up,” says Coun. Catherine Kitts. “We’re in a situation now where all of our roads are beyond max capacity, and residents are getting really frustrated and we need a solution.”
