The City of Ottawa's best plan of attack here should be transit. Use the freeway EA money to boost frequency on CRT lines into Ottawa. THAT will reduce the bottleneck at the split - CRT buses use the Transitway from Blair Station on.

Do you really think that any of the money for the 174 twinning will be available for transit? Not likely! This is the city killing a provincial campaign promise. The province is not going to look on this too kindly. Since 2006, we have been going through a period of non-cooperation on jointly funded projects. This does not bode well for future jointly funded projects including LRT until at least some of the key players are out of office.
