Old Ottawa East Community Association's Canada 150 Circumnavigation Event will take place on Saturday, September 9. Learn more about the event (and how you can participate!) on our website. The event was also profiled in an article by OttawaCommunityNews.com.
The path along the Rideau River/behind the Greystone development is now closed and the reopening is anticipated for October 1, 2017. During that time, the following work will be completed:
- A new siltation fence installed on the top of bank/slope along the entire length of the river
- 1 foot of clean top soil placed along the entire corridor, reducing any risk there may have been to exposure of the contaminated material.
- Construction and completion of the multi-use pathway including asphalt
The OECA board meets the second Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Old Town Hall, located at 61 Main Street (with the exception of July and August). All are welcome to attend. For inquiries, please email info@ottawaeast.ca.
