Hello Councillor Morantz,

We wanted to provide you with an update on the public engagement component for the WRCPExtension Study. In the spring of this year we had held some stakeholder meetings, including CCHP, andwe had met with you beforehand to review the stakeholder materials and the Open House boards. Weaddressed your comments and concerns that you had identified in the meeting.

We are now preparing to have a few more additional stakeholder meetings, which we will extend theinvite to you if you wish to attend, as well as an Open House. Enclosed is the newsletter for the OpenHouse, which will be distributed within and around the project area. The Open House is scheduled forJanuary 19th 2016.

As it has been a long time since we last met, please advise if you would require any further informationor have any questions.

Hello Councillor,

The open house was very well attended and we got a lot of great feedback from the attendees. The boards are availableonline at:

http://www.winnipeg.ca/publicworks/construction/studies/williamclement.stm

As discussed, the dog park option north of Grant Avenue was not desired by the public, and we will likely not furtherpursue this option.

For Wilkes Alignment, Option 2 was the most desirable option from the public and also the most desirable from andengineering perspective.

As mentioned the options presented were very conceptual and the next steps will be detail the preferred alignment,that will be chosen based on technical analysis and public feedback. From that point we would have detailedinformation to determine the actual impact to private lands. We will be hosting small group meetings with impactedland owners to talk about why are doing this work, what it means, and what the next steps are. Our Real Estate branchwill be there to explain the process. This is the typical process for projects of this nature and worked well, one examplewas the Route 90 Study — Kenaston six laneing from Ness to Taylor. We will meet with you first prior to meeting withthe public in regards to property acquisition. This will happen this year.

As mentioned, the alignments of the road and the authority to negotiate property acquisition will all have to beapproved by Council. Identifying property requirements far in advance of any possible construction is proactive, is muchmore manageable financially, more predictable and less stressful for the public.

If you have any further questions or require a meeting please let us know.

William R. Clement Parkway and Sterling LyonParkway Extensions

Functional and Preliminary Design Study

Update August 2017

Due to project prioritization, the original timeline for this study was extended. The project team is currentlyupdating stakeholders and residents with the revised project timeline. Landowner meetings and an openhouse will be held in the Fall of 2017 to discuss the draft preliminary design.

The William R. Clement Parkway (WRCP) and Sterling Lyon Parkway (SLP) Extensions are importantcomponents of the City’s future transportation system, providing north-south and east-west links in westWinnipeg. The City’s Transportation Master Plan, which guides transportation planning in Winnipeg, includesthe WRCP Extension as a major transportation facility, to accommodate future travel demand in the area. InMarch 2015, a public information display session introduced the public to the WRCP Extension study.Feedback from this event was considered in the development of alignment options for the study. In January2016, an open house was held to share phase 1 design options and feedback from that event is beingconsidered in the recommendation of the preliminary design.

Engage

Landowner meetings and a public open house will be held in the Fall of 2017. Invitations will be sent toresidents in addition to notification through advertisements and social media.

Thank you to those who have participated in the project so far through the information session, openhouse, and online surveys.

Background

The City’s Transportation Master Plan approved by City Council in November 2011 includes the WRCP

Extension as a major transportation facility. The WRCP Extension is identified in the Transportation Master

Plan as an important component of the City’s strategic road network to accommodate the travel demand

associated with future residential, commercial, and industrial growth in west Winnipeg.

The Citys Transportation Master Plan identifies the extension of the WRCP between Grant Avenue andWilkes Avenue as a medium-term project. However, on April 25, 2012, Council approved an amendment tothe Transportation Master Plan resulting in this portion of the WRCP Extension becoming a short-termproject. The future extension of the WRCP between a signalized intersection with the extension of SLP andMcGillivray Boulevard is defined as a long-term project.

In December of 2013, the 2014 Capital Budget was approved by Council to include the Functional DesignStudy of WRCP Extension. In December of 2014, the Capital budget was amended to include funding fromthe Charleswood Transportation Levy to expand the scope of work to include studying twinning andrealignment options for Wilkes Avenue.

Phase I - Shorter-term

• The recommended road network includes the extension of WRCP from Grant Avenue to a signalizedintersection with the extension of SLP.

Phase 11*- Longer-term

• Future extension of WRCP from SLP to McGillivray Boulevard.

*(as per Transportation Master Plan)

Study Scope:

• Conduct functional and preliminary design studies for the WRCP and SLP extensions• Develop alignment options for an east-west connection south of the CN Mainline• Develop grade separation options at the CN Mainline• Develop alternatives for the Harte Trail crossing• Identify potential dog park location(s)• Obtain Environmental Act Licensing for Phase 1• Conceptual Environmental Assessment Study for Phase 2

Frequently Asked Questions

1.What are some of the key components of the WRCP Study? Tell me about this project.

http://www.winnipeg.calpublicworks/constructionlprojects/WRCP-Extension.stm 12/19/2017


9


The William R. Clement Parkway (WRCP) Extension is an important component of the City of Winnipeg’sfuture transportation system, providing a north-south link in west Winnipeg. The City’s TransportationMaster Plan, which guides transportation planning in Winnipeg, includes the WRCP Extension as a majortransportation facility, intended to accommodate future travel demand in the area.

The WRCP Extension will include an overpass of the CN mainline, a bridge for the Harte Trail, anenvironmental assessment, and integration of recreational opportunities such as parks and pathways. Thestudy will not only look at improving the north-south movement of people, goods and services but will alsolook at improvement to Wilkes Avenue.

2.Why are we spending money on new roads instead of fixing our existing infrastructure?

The City needs to proactively plan for future growth. The William R. Clement Parkway extension will supporteconomic development, create recreational opportunities and will take us one step closer to the completionof the Strategic Inner Ring Road to reduce traffic on neighborhood streets.

This transportation corridor is intended to support local and regional economic growth for the City; thegrade separation of the WRCP Extension at the CN Rail Line at Wilkes Ave., along with many otherimprovements, will provide more efficient movement of goods and services in the City.

This study is partially funded by the Charleswood Transportation Levy which was developed to support theimprovement and development of transportation facilities for that area.

3.What is the budget for this project? Where is funding going to come from for this project?

This project does not have a construction budget yet. Council has only approved the funding to conduct anengineering study.

4.How will this new facility impact existing properties?

There are a small number of privately owned properties that will need to be acquired should the William R.Clement Parkway (WRCP) Extension and Re-alignment of Wilkes Avenue construction project receiveCouncil approval in the future.

The City will be in touch with the affected property owners directly and will meet one-on-one with them inthe fall of 2017 ahead of a public open house.

5.Will the dog park be shut down?

The Dog Park area was always intended to be a temporary use of that property, as the City purchased thatproperty many years ago with the intention of using it for a transportation corridor. The City understandsthe importance of the Charleswood Dog Park to area residents, and has identified a number of alternatelocations within the area.

6.Why are we going to build a road through the heavily treed area, what are we going to do toprotect environmentally sensitive areas?

The project team includes a team of environmental and biology professionals who are performing anEnvironmental Assessment that includes the identification of environmentally sensitive areas. We will takemeasures to mitigate negative impacts where possible.

7.Are there traffic signals planned for this new roadway at all the intersections?

A key component of the study is to look at current and future traffic to adequately address traffic needs andto ensure public safety. We have considered a number of options for intersections along the extensionincluding an underpass, overpass and signalized intersection.

8.When will the public have an opportunity to review the completed Preliminary Design Study andpreferred alignment information?

http ://www.winnipeg.calpublicworks/constructionlprojects/WRCP-Extension.stm 12/19/2017


10


The City is planning an open house for fall 2017. The preferred alignment will be available to view at thisevent as well as online prior to the event. The open house will also provide an opportunity for the public toprovide feedback to the project team. The Preliminary Design Study report will be finalized following thisopen house and the study will be completed in winter 2018.

There are a small number of privately owned properties that will need to be acquired as part of thepreferred alignment. The City will be in touch with the affected property owners directly and will meet withthem in the fall 2017. These meetings will occur ahead of a public open house and the preferred alignmentwill be reviewed at the meetings with property owners.

9.What are the next steps?

Once the study is complete, it will be presented to Council for their approval of the suggested alignmentand understanding of the costs associated to aid the City in seeking funding opportunities.
