I noticed that there is something about this in the ByWard Market Public Realm website:
Quote:
The Gateways
Public space design at the intersections of Rideau/Sussex/Colonel By and St. Patrick/Murray/Sussex will be linked to a broader transportation analysis of how these intersections fit within Ottawa’s street network. This analysis will be undertaken in the coming months, with conceptual public space designs to follow.
Early thoughts for the Rideau/Sussex/Colonel By are to create a continuous, ground-level public space by removing the vehicular slip lanes from Rideau to Colonel By and the pedestrian tunnel known as the Rideau Underpass. This would provide opportunities for significant public art, greening, and the creation of an active building edge along the former train station in the long term.

Scroll down to near the bottom to "The Gateways". Hopefully the folks looking at this and the folks looking at the Mackenzie-Colonel By cycling connection are talking to each other.
BTW there is also a survey about the ByWard Public Realm study and they are accepting comments until August 2:
