Hour 1 of Ottawa Now for Wed. March 26th, 2025

Ottawa City Council is voting to reduce the speed limit on a section of Bank Street around the South Keys Shopping Centre. If passed, this proposal would decrease the speed limit from 60 kilometres per hour to 50 kilometres per hour. Advocates argue this idea would reduce the number of pedestrian deaths, thereby making the area much safer for pedestrians to access on a daily basis. Kristy Cameron digs deeper with Marko Miljusevic, who is a Board Member with Strong Towns Ottawa. Plus, as we prepare to wrap up Day 4 of the federal election campaign, CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent delivers the latest developments and pledges from the campaign trail.
