Dr. James Sproule is on a mission to have Manotick emulate Paris, Ont. and make trucks use a ring road around, not through, the village.
Nineteen citiesI know. I can’t feel it either. In fact, I feel safer using the roads in Huntsville than in Ottawa. And other than that one memorable time when a cop stopped me to ask why I wasn’t walking on the sidewalk that didn’t in fact exist, roads are friendlier in this southern city than in Ottawa.
In the document he presented to the Manotick Village & Community Association, and which he shared with me, Sproule doesn’t mince words. It is clear to him, that “the current Main Street-Bridge Street intersection is effectively designed to optimize the likelihood of pedestrian deaths. Heavy truck design itself and the passage of these large commercial vehicles turning through the intersection at Main Street and Bridge Street optimize the likelihood of a fatal pedestrian crash.
