The Duhamel Road redevelopment project is part of a vision of sustainable development along the Ottawa River.

Redevelopment of Duhamel Road – Riverside Promenade

Metropolitan Recognition
From July 2 to August 28, 2015, the CMM launched a public call for urban and regional development projects. More than 50 initiatives were selected to form the “forest of inspiring projects” for the 2015 Agora. In addition, a dozen projects stemming from the implementation of the Metropolitan Land Use and Development Plan (PMAD) were also showcased.

The riverside promenade project on Duhamel Road was among those selected, featured on page 31 of the official 2015 Metropolitan Agora report (in French).

Key Milestones

2015: Project initiated following the call for submissions.

2016: Preliminary studies completed and construction began.

July 4, 2016: Official inauguration of Phase 1, connecting D’Ambrosio Park (at the corner of Duhamel and Cardinal-Léger) to Bellevue Park.

Upcoming Phase
The new phase of the project will extend the promenade between 9th Avenue and 5th Avenue. Construction is scheduled for spring 2025, primarily during the months of April and May.
