Notice of Study CompletionCountry Club Village and Highway 7 Service Road Access Study(Dwyer Hill Road to Jinkinson Road) Class Environmental AssessmentThe City of Ottawa completed an Environmental Study Report (ESR) and Update, which examined future local road access between Dwyer Hill Road and Jinkinson Road in the vicinity of County Club Village and the Canadian Golf and Country Club. The Study recommended the construction of a two kilometre road extending west from Jinkinson Road along side the south side of Highway 7 and connecting to a service road planned as part of Highway 7 expansion project.
