The city’s finance committee will be asked to approve spending $7 million more
to develop the second phase of light rail now that an environmental assessment
has confirmed the ambitious plan is viable, even though other levels of
government have not officially approved funding the project yet. The detailed
report also finds a rail link to Ottawa’s international airport is technically
possible, but there’s no clear plan yet on who would pay for the $155-million
project. via
