Hence what I posted in another thread:
'I would really like to see the Prince of Wales Bridge used for rail, as well as for ped. / cycle. I sometimes cycle the bike path on the Quebec side out to the Aylmer Marina, and the adjacent old rail right-of-way seems to mostly be intact. And the bike path actually uses it for the last it before the marina. Back X amount of years ago there was much noise on the Ottawa side when it was proposed to expand the Champlain Bridge. The expansion seemed to be mainly for the benefit of Quebec commuters, and I always thought "but there's an old rail line that could be used for those folks going right through their community...".'
