Great News Regarding Scott Street!

In our last two posts, we informed our readers that the City was exploring the possibility of widening Scott Street, between Island Park Drive and Ross Avenue, from the south side of the street. The WVCA strongly opposed this widening and met with Councilor Leiper and City staff members to discuss.

We're very pleased to inform you that Jeff met again with City staff to request not to proceed with the widening and they agreed not to proceed.

Please stay tuned for details regarding a public information session being organized by the City regarding the Sewer and Watermain Rehabilitation Project (Scott Street between Island Park Drive and Ross Avenue).

Wellington Village is a vibrant Ottawa neighbourhood bounded by Island Park Drive to the west, Scott Street to the north, Holland Avenue to the east and the Queensway to the south. Tree lined streets, red brick facades, great schools, and a main street of independent businesses, food shops and artisans have helped turn this area into one of Ottawa’s most enjoyable communities. Most amenities are within walking distance, with plenty of green spaces for all residents to enjoy and easy access to the Ottawa River. The new LRT station at Tunney’s Pasture connects Wellington Village to the downtown and beyond in minutes.
