OTTAWA – Ottawa residents met at a hotel Monday night to discuss the upcoming expansion project of the Queensway.
The project will widen a section of the highway between Nicholas Street and Highway 174.
One lane will be added to each direction expanding the lanes from three to four, and will be done in two stages to minimize traffic disruption, according to the Ottawa Citizen.
In the plan, three bridges will be replaced at Lees Avenue, the Vanier Parkway and Belfast road.
Construction is expected to begin this summer and will end in 2015, at a cost of over $200 million.
