ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT STUDY OF FUTURE INTERPROVINCIAL CROSSINGS IN THE NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION

Roche-NCE would like to invite you on behalf of the National Capital Commission (NCC), the Ontario Ministry of
Transportation (MTO) and the ministère des Transports du Québec (MTQ) to the fourth round of public consultation sessions
for the Environmental Assessment Study of Future Interprovincial Crossings in the National Capital Region (NCR). This
Study is being undertaken in cooperation with the Ville de Gatineau, the City of Ottawa, and in consultation with government
agencies and the general public.

The purpose of the Study is to assess prospective interprovincial transportation infrastructure corridors to address: current
and future capacity deficiencies in the NCR, truck traffic, the economic need for greater efficiency in the movement of goods,
community disruption associated with current crossing corridors and the environmental implications of identified crossing
corridors. The Study will be conducted in two Phases: Phase 1 will document the need and justification and will assess
several different solutions and corridors, resulting in the recommendation of the technically preferred alternative; and Phase 2
will assess the environmental impacts of the corridor and obtain appropriate approvals.

The purpose of this public consultation is to receive comments on the results of the detailed technical evaluation, ranking of
alternatives and present the technically preferred alternative for a future crossing of the Ottawa River. The following
information is available for input and comments:
• Evaluation of Crossing Alternatives;
• Technically Preferred Alternative;
• Recommended Project as Phase 2 of the EA; and
• Next Steps.

You are invited to view and comment on the Study materials during the public consultations or online at
www.ncrcrossings.ca. Public input is important to the successful completion of the Study.
