Updates
In 2018, the Ministry of transportation (MTO) completed detail design and Environmental Assessment Study for the replacement, rehabilitation (with widening), or removal of five (5) bridges and three (3) culverts along Highway 417 (GWP 4145-10-00), in the City of Ottawa.
​
The scope of work included:
  • Rehabilitation of the Innes Road Underpass with staged construction. One westbound lane will be closed during construction on Innes Road.
  • Rehabilitation and widening of the CNR Overhead Bridges with staged construction, maintaining two lanes of Highway 417 traffic in each direction. The Walkley Road Highway 417 eastbound on-ramp will be closed temporarily for one construction season.
  • Rehabilitation of the Green’s Creek Culverts.
  • Replacement of the Ramsayville Road Overpasses on a new alignment, including the realignment of approximately 2 km of Highway 417 and removal of the Ramsay Creek culvert. Isolated overnight full closures of Ramsayville Road are required during construction.
 
Construction is currently underway for the rehabilitation of the Innes Road Underpass, replacement of the Ramsayville Road Overpasses and removal of the Ramsay Creek Culvert. Construction for the rehabilitation of the Highway 417 Green’s Creek Culverts (Eastbound lanes (EBL) & Westbound lanes (WBL)) and CNR Overhead Bridges (EBL & WBL) will be included under a separate construction contract (GWP 4099-11-00 & GWP 4074-11-00). Traffic management for construction staging has been coordinated with the City of Ottawa.
