East meets quest for LRT
Four east-end councillors are rallying to ensure light rail travels their way first when the city breaks ground on the first phase of its transit plan, while city staff might be preparing to recommend the city move ahead with a major portion of the light rail route that council cancelled almost two years ago. Councillors Rainer Bloess, Michel Bellemare, Rob Jellet and Bob Monette are delivering their position on Ottawa`s transit future from the Blair Rd. transit station this morning, just two days before the city kicks off public consultations on Ottawa`s Transportation Master Plan.
