OTTAWA City of Ottawa staff say it will cost about $22.6 million to transform the Prince of Wales Bridge over the Ottawa River into a multi-use pathway until it s ready for rail again. The 140-year-old bridge connecting Ottawa and Gatineau via Lemieux Island is still expected to be used for rail again in the future but, in the meantime, the City of Ottawa intends to turn it into a pathway that will be used by cyclists and pedestrians and even cross-country skiers, according to a memo sent to city councillors on Monday. The City has identified an opportunity to improve active transportation between Ottawa and Gatineau by building a multi-use pathway that would serve as an interprovincial link for pedestrians, commuting and recreational cyclists, cross-country skiers and visitors, until the structure is once again used as a rail transit connection, the memo states.
