Manotick sees big drop in traffic

Emma Jackson

News - Thousands of drivers have found new routes around Manotick now that the Vimy Memorial Bridge is open. A traffic count done Aug. 28, six weeks after the delayed connection opened be-

tween Riverside South and Barrhaven, showed a 30 per cent reduction in cars and trucks through the Manotick Main and Bridge streets intersection during morning rush hour compared to the same time in May. An afternoon count on the same day found 20 per cent reductions in car and truck traffic compared to May. The bridge’s opening was heralded as a necessary overpass for south end drivers, who until July had to go north to Hunt Club Road or south to Bridge Street to

cross the river. The bridge was meant to reduce traffic on those crossings, and, so far, that prediction seems to be coming true. According to the numbers obtained by Manotick News, 1,768 fewer vehicles used Manotick’s main intersection in the morning peak hours this August compared to May. Another 1,566 vehicles chose a different route in the afternoon. Almost immediately after the bridge opened, residents were commenting on social media that the village core was much more manageable. Homeowners also noted less cut-through traffic on residential streets like Long Island Drive. But some suspect the drastic statistics are just a summer honeymoon. “That date (for the traffic count) was the last weekend of August, before the Labour Day weekend,” said Manotick Village and Community Association president Klaus Beltzner.
