By Matthew Pearson, Ottawa Citizen, February 5, 2015
Wednesday’s big story at city hall was, of course, the tabling of the draft
budget. (...) SPEAKING NOTES — Councillor Keith Egli Transportation Committee
February 4, 2015 This year we’re moving ahead with Stage 2 environmental
assessment studies for Confederation Line West LRT Extension, the Trillium Line
Extension to the south and the Confederation Line East LRT Extension. Stage 2
will add 30 kilometres of new rail and 19 new stations to Ottawa’s transit
system. This expanded light-rail system will bring close to 70 per cent of the
total city population, within five kilometres of rail transit by 2023. These
studies will be considered by Transportation Committee this year. via
