BUSING IN KANATA - OC Transpo has announced changes to service that are

LRT to Bayshore

Earlier this month, Council approved the expanded Stage 2 project, including
extending the Confederation Line West to Moodie Drive and adding a maintenance
and storage facility near Moodie Drive. The budget remains at $3 billion due to
additional support from the federal and provincial governments.

KANATA NORTH TRAFFIC CALMING MEASURES

Speeding is an issue across the City and is also common in Kanata North. Recently,
through the Citys Strategic Initiative process, a program for new Temporary Traffic
Calming (TTC) treatments was created to help focus on individual community
problem areas. We have been working with the City to install some traffic calming
measures throughout the community to help control this issue. Additional speed
recording displays have been ordered and will be placed in key areas in the
community. For a full list of measures please visit my website, where you can also
submit other suggestions.
