Isn't that an interesting point. If this bridge closes to everyone - including cyclists and pedestrians - for a few weeks every spring, it could become inconvenient for folks to get to the Ottawa side.
Does the Quebec side also close due to high water? Could the residents of ZIBI be left stranded on an island?

That's a good point. We need another crossing for active transportation that's flood proof.

Zip line? Build a second one from Hull to Ottawa?
Right. Delete my comment I read it as 'built' instead of 'occupied'.
Then I couldn't remember the word 'cheese' when I was ordering a sub the other day. Chemo brain is the real deal. Bear with me for three more months folks
I was there last weekend checking out the high water levels, and both pedestrians and cyclists can easily access the site. I'd say there were at least 20 or more people taking in the sights by the ring dam and paths.

No worries.
We will support you and your chemo brain this round is done. Wishing you the best!
Some pictures from yesterday, as I went to check out the Chaudiere Falls. It seems to be the trendy thing to do . The water levels seem to be down a bit.

They can easily access the site if they ignore the stupid signage that makes it seem like the site is closed off entirely.

[QUOTE=zzptichka;9946812]Are there plans for pedestrian improvements? Hope they take this opportunity and widen the sidewalk. Or at least add a second one on the West side.
One narrow one designed many decades ago to serve an industrial area is pretty inadequate for a "world-class sustainable community" tbh.
I could probably answer that question for you...
hmm... nope. We don't plan for anything in Ottawa. Literally like looking through the wrong end of the telescope at all times.

The pointy red building on the right, does that contain a pass-thru so I can walk from the Albert Island courtyard to Chaudiere Private bridge? Or is this going to be a 'private' courtyard?
Which is the old and which is the new design? I feel like I've seen 3-4 revised renders that all look very similar.
Love that render of what it would look like with all buildings completed. I really hope they do that white stacked tower design, looks great and so different for Ottawa. My only complaint, once again, is that it looks like all 4-5 towers are basically the same height. Can't we get some variation?!
