	Queensway (Ottawa) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Queensway is a major complete controlled-access freeway running through Ottawa, Ontario, Canada from Kanata in the west to Orléans in the east.
		Most contend that the Queensway does not include Highway 417 east of "the split", but rather includes Regional Road 174 east to Orléans instead, which is the basic alignment of the original Highway 17 connecting Ottawa and Montreal and the alignment of most of Ottawa's eastern population (see before 1997 provincial downloading).
		Some consider the Queensway to refer strictly to Highway 417, including the area of the 417 east (technically south) of "the split" until it reaches Ottawa's city limits, since Highway 417 has been exclusively designated as part of the Trans-Canada Highway after provincial downloading in 1997.

		In Ottawa, the viability of commuter rail links and existing bus routes decreases with every road built, not only because of ridership lost directly to cars, but also because increased road access encourages suburban developments that render public transit impractical (not to mention further encouraging car use).
		The city of Ottawa (and by that we mean each and every resident) has to decide how it will change from a sleepy small city to a large bustling city in a smart way.
		A group of Ottawa activists and two local politicians are calling for a non-partisan inquiry into the provincial environment ministry's actions over the past five years.

		In the northwest quadrant, (north of the Queensway and west of the CPRcorridor), the existing light industrial character will be maintained and its compatibility with the adjacent residential community will be enhanced by the addition of design guidelines.
		Any required widening of the transportation corridor north of the Queensway will be obtained from the Government Services Canada lands at the time of redevelopment in order to protect the existing residential neighbourhood to the west of the CPR corridor.
		South of the Queensway, development of the corridor should occur within the existing right-of-way in order to protect the existing residential community immediately to the east of the CPR corridor.

		On July 11th 2005, the Queensway Coalition gathered for a Parks over Pavement: Trees and Smog Coffee Break to highlight the nonsense of promising cleaner air by building more roads and the continued threat of Queensway widening.
		Since this study began in 2003, Ottawa has seen a steady worsening of air quality and 2005 is breaking all previous records for severity of smog in Ottawa.
		The Queensway coalition along with the Sierra Club hosted a Smog Breakfast on June 18th 2003 to raise awareness about proposed provincial Bill 25, which would give the provincial minister of transport more power to designate highway corridors with less influence from municipal official plans and environmental assessments.

		The Ministry has agreed that the area South of the Queensway around Preston St., and the area North of the Queensway from Bronson to Lyon meet the warrants for the retrofit Noise Barrier Programme.
		It will be vital now to encourage the Ministry to install all the warranted noise barriers during any work on the Queensway. This makes both financial sense and addresses the concerns of affected residents in a timely fashion.
		As you know, I have always been a strong proponent of the installation of sound barriers along the Queensway, however since it is a Provincial roadway, it is critical that Richard Patten hear your views on this matter.

		The City of Ottawa staff report on a pesticide reduction strategy for private property (Ref No. ACS2002-DEV-POL-0032) fails to reflect the concerns expressed by residents of Sandy Hill, nor does it adequately reflect the input of many residents of this city to the public participation process.
		A growing number of municipalities in Ontario and throughout Canada have adopted and are successfully implementing bylaws that reduce unnecessary exposure of the public and the environment to risks from pesticide use.

	Queensway Coalition
		Lobbying provincial politicians is the single most important thing anybody can do now because the province controls the Queensway and transportation funds which would be better spent on transit than on widening a highway in the city.
		By comparison this Queensway widening will only add 1 lane in each direction from Island Park west and 1 lane in each direction from Metcalfe east, which isn't very much for the expense.
		The Coalition Against Queensway Widening is a group of community associations and individuals who joined together to fight for Smart Growth alternatives, such as rapid transit, cycling and walking, instead of highway expansion through the heart of Ottawa.
